Product Description
The Voices series brings alive a range of modern-day issues - many of them highly controversial - and aims to stimulate debate and discussion. Firsthand quotes from young people and figures in authority present often opposing views, and offer a global perspective on a wide variety of questions relating to each topic. Summaries of statistics complement the text and provide furhter food for thought.Race Hate takes a broad-minded look at prejudices that not only affect our lives today, but have also been in place for many hundreds of years. It explores subjects such as:
* what race is and why it matters
* racial violence against individuals and against whole populations
* how peopel of different races perceive immigration and affirmative action policies.
