Editors Kimmel (sociology, SUNY-Stony Brook) and Ferber (sociology, University of Colorado) gather provocative readings for undergraduate and graduate students, with the goal of fostering awareness rather than inducing guilt. Some essays are written from an analytical perspective and some are more personal; all use an intersectional approach to examine issues of privilege and oppression related to gender, race, class, sexual orientation, ability, and religion. Some subjects include the new black elite, myths about legacy preferences in college admissions, and questioning privilege from within the special education process. This third edition contains ten new and revised essays. Discussion questions are new, and new personal connection activities encourage students to explore their values and assumptions.
