Multiculturalism, Diversity, and the Impact Parents and Schools Have on Societal Race Relations

Multicultural research shows that students' attitudes and friendships within a multiracial/ethnic context involve complicated sets of behavioral and attitudinal dimensions. Parents' and teachers' influence can cause children to develop positive and/or negative attitudes about an entire group. Structural multiculturalism is a challenging, essential curriculum-reform direction. (76 references) (MLH)
