"I really like the range of topics covered and the focus on looking at differences within groups. Chapter 8 [Unmasking Racism: Halloween Costuming and Engagement of the Racial Other] looks especially appealing in this respect. I also like the general framing of the book, and its focus on nonwhites." -- Tomas R. Jimenez "I am especially happy with the inclusion of colorism, which all our students are keenly aware of from their experiences." -- Donna Martinez
