When faced with a constant flow of information, correct and incorrect, how can society adequately explore the intersection of race, spirituality, politics, culture, and gender? What Color Are Your Jellybeans? Intersections of Generation, Race, Sex, Culture, and Gender examines how all these affect our views of differences in general, and more importantly, how we view each other.Adroitly combining original commentary and outstanding reading selections, the book explores the impact of gender, sexual, racial, cultural, and generational differences, especially as they impact the millennial generation. The material centers on understanding and valuing difference from both personal and global perspectives. It also examines significant historical and current events, trends, processes, and individual and organizational complexities that are inherent in any discussion of differences.Firmly rooted in a philosophy that encourages and validates diversity and inclusion, What Color Are Your Jellybeans? allows students to have a “safe space” to talk about difficult and even taboo topics, while at the same time examining the social structures behind the issues. This inspirational text is well-suited to courses in African American studies and history, women's and gender studies, diversity, and sociology.

Gender and Education discusses the impact of education on women and people of color at the intersection of gender, race, class, culture, and political and generational variables. The book explores how the languages of gender and equity can be understood beyond the assignment of categories or academic success.Students learn about the passage of Title IX and its subsequent backlash, social control within schools, the relationship between bulling and discrimination in schools, students' free speech rights, and women's underrepresentation in the disciplines of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. They examine topics such as affirmative action in higher education, online education, and whether today's charter schools truly represent educational reform.The second edition features new readings on the topics of queer pedagogy, reproduction theory and the gender status quo, bullying and discrimination in early childhood, race and gender disparity in urban education, interdisciplinary women's and gender students, the impact of sexual orientation and gender expression bias on African-American students, academic capitalism, and the role of social media in higher education.Gender and Education is an ideal resources for courses in education, gender studies, and race and diversity in the classroom.
