Moulder, Frances V.
Teaching Sociology, v25 n2 p120-27 Apr 1997
Summarizes the response to complaints that a class examining the sociology of minorities unfairly emphasized negative behavior.

This new perspective was incorporated into writing assignments, class discussions, and instructional materials. (MJP)
