Rezensionen

"Deculturalization and the Struggle for Equality is a foundational text for teaching about the history of indigenous and Americans of color in the United States. I will continue to use this text and recommend it for as long as I teach."

Lillian Castaneda, California State University Channel Islands, USA

"This book provides our students with a range of cultures to learn about and explore. It provides such great context on deculturalization and privilege which has created institutions that have systemic racism. Dr. Spring notes the great weight that systemic racism has put on our education system, even today."

Lori Lucas, Wayne State University, USA
