| Abstract | Addresses the perception that opposition, backlash, and debates about multicultural literature garner a great deal of attention and seem to threaten its continued existence. Investigates specific debates, dilemmas, and delights surrounding the effort to integrate multicultural literature into curriculums. Looks at definitions of racial and ethnic groups, strictures on multicultural authors, and how commercialism affects publications. (TB) |
