![]() ![]() ![]() I thus felt this was less compelling than the best of histories. In this book, the history is not integrated, it focuses largely on the inequities suffered by minorities, instead of a broad swath including the inequities along with the many scientific, technical, cultural, artistic, and political contributions of minorities. Most of this material was covered back then, and covered in a more integrated way. Perhaps, once upon a time, the history of minorities in the US was not covered in K-12 histories, but for decades (at least in California where I graduated high school in 1976) this has no longer been the case. ![]() This (like all histories) distorts in its own way. This is book attempts to look at US history through a different mirror by focusing upon the history of various minorities. ![]()
