Confronting Prejudice And Racism During Multicultural Training

Confronting Prejudice and Racism During Multicultural Training

This groundbreaking book presents an in-depth analysis of the issues of racism, sexism, homophobia, ableism, and ageism that emerge during multicultural training. Fifteen leading scholars of multiculturalism examine the process of confronting one's own prejudices and ethnocentrism to increase competency in counseling clients from diverse backgrounds. The authors provide multiple perspectives on understanding and responding to resistance to diversity training and offer effective recommendations for confronting prejudice in compassionate, nonaggressive ways.
