Over the course of eight chapters, students read enlightening articles about American Indian women in higher education, the politics of gerrymandering, the Muslim experience in America, and mass incarceration and the African American population. Dedicated chapters discuss Asian Americans as victim and success stories, the origins and causes of the Civil Rights Movement, the current state of same-sex marriage, and significant modern movements, including Black Lives Matter and #MeToo. Students read a case study about migration and immigration in the United States and essays on the challenges of multiculturalism versus pluralism in America. Contemporary Perspectives on Ethnic Studies is an ideal resource for courses within the discipline, especially those with focus on the current state and future of the practice.
