Ethnicity in Textbooks

Garcia, Jesus

Lutheran Education, 113, 3, 152-61, Jan/Feb 78

If texts are to promote ethnicity, they must (1) be free of excessive biases, (2) describe events and issues from various viewpoints, (3) reflect local, state, and national realities, and (4) present history that focuses on the interactions between established Americans and ethnic groups. (MJB)
