Grounded in a socio-historical perspective with engaging stories and first person accounts.
Racial and ethnic relations in the United States are at a dynamic and exciting time. Major events are shaping our society, such as population and immigration changes, the election of the first African-American president, and increasing diversity throughout our society.
Racial and Ethnic Groups, 12th edition helps students understand the changing dynamics of the U.S. population. By using a socio-historical perspective, the author frames issues by examining our history, exploring the current situation, and discussing the concerns for the future.
Filled with first person accounts, such as “Listen to Our Voices,” brief story chapter openers, and “Student Voices” questions, Schaefer’s Racial and Ethnic Groups actively engages students in the study of racial and ethnic relations.
Major changes include the introduction of “Global View” boxes, and new discussions of high-interest topics, such as African immigration and color-blind racism.

Especially the historical perspectives on American racial minorities." - Professor Kebba Darboe, Minnesota State University "I have already adopted this book for more than five years, and I recommended it to other colleagues who have also adopted it at another university." -Professor Kebba Darboe, Minnesota State University "This is still the best college text that overviews the racial and ethnic diversity in the Unites States within a socio-historical framework. It has become a more attractive text in both its format and aesthetic qualities." - Professor Jac Bulk, University of Wisconsin "This book is superior to all its competition." - Professor Jac Bulk, University of Wisconsin "This text is my choice because it appears to be scholarly, and providing a balance of necessary historical context and current information." -Dr. Karen Hardin, Mesa Community College Features "The marginal glossary is one of the best features in the book.
