(4.5) | 1 | "Multi-America is an unprecedented, unpredictable and absolutely refreshing anthology. Ishmael Reed has brought together a rainbow collection of ethnic Americans to challenge the communications oligopolies that have dominated the discussion of race in this country. It provides perspectives from points of view that have been omitted from the discussion of race in the United States: African American, Native American, Asian American and Euro-ethnic, Italian American, Irish American, etc. These marginalized voices speak out on a broad spectrum of topics: an Irish American discusses what has been lost in assimilation; an Afrocentrist responds to the one-sided depiction of Afrocentrism; Latinos discuss the violent racial conflicts between blacks and Latinos. They represent, for the first time, the authentic voice of the new Rainbow America."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc. All Rights Reserved… (mere) |

Oplysninger fra den engelske Almen Viden Redigér teksten, så den bliver dansk. Multiculturalism means that in order to understand the nature and complexities of American culture, it is crucial to study and comprehend the widest possible array of the contributing cultures and their interaction with one another. -- Lawrence W. Levine, *The New York Times*, August 21, 1996  ... History denied or distorted takes on a power that poisons and eventually becomes the cancer at the heart of personal, family, and group survival. -- Lois Matt-Fassbinder | |

Oplysninger fra den engelske Almen Viden Redigér teksten, så den bliver dansk. The response of the northeastern media, punditry, Beltway political community, and corporate-financed think-tank intellectuals to the Los Angeles riots in 1992, which followed the Simi Valley jury's decision acquitting four policemen who had been charged with beating Rodney King, a black motorist, was convincing proof that the traditional establishment is blind to the multicultural realities of American society.
