Summary: What is Diversity?
Comment: This book really stresses learning about diversity through dialog with others. Some of the examples she uses are a little idealistic and corny, but her main message is important. She points you that as a society we always find someone to stigmatize and stereotype. The way to get over these hurdles is to talk openly and learn from each other. Only then can diverse people feel truly comfortable with each other.

Summary: Unorganized, Obvious, and Ignorant
Comment: The author of this book doesn't even realize how poorly written this book really is. It is so unorganized, and makes so many references to so many different people that i loose grasp of what the heck she is trying to talk about. And talk about the most ignorant person in the world!! How can a full grown teacher NOT have ever heard of Kwanzaa? How could she not know that Young blacks use the "N" word with one another? I mean come on, this author has been living in a bubble and the stuff she discovers is nothing beyond what everyone knows already.

Summary: Communication is the key to the lock on multicultural edu.
Comment: I am an education major and read this book for an assignment. I am very impreesed with this book. I love the idea of using continuious stories to encourage students to think and question. I am especially fond of the relation that Ms. Paley and her colleague Lorraine share. If only conversations like theirs were held between Black and White teachers at every school!
