Race Relations - The Struggle for Equality in America

How comfortable are you talking about race? In Race Relations: The Struggle for Equality in America, kids ages 12 to 15 follow the evolution of race relations in America, from when American colonists used racial differences to justify slavery, discrimination, and the persecution of people of color until the modern-day presidencies of Barack Obama and Donald Trump. Through essential questions, primary sources, and investigative projects, readers develop a comprehensive understanding of the past, present, and future of race in America.
