Subsequent chapters focus on foundations for a Chicano psychology, sociocultural variability, psychological disorder among Chicanos, and social psychology.

Book Description
The chapters presented here provide the reader with an awareness of the divergent views of what constitutes racism and frameworks for reducing it. This book points out that the dialogue and research on this subject since the mid-1970s have yielded increased contro versy over the theories, foundation, and continued existence of racism. Ironically, what we viewed in the 1954Brown decision and the Civil Rights Act of 1964as the beginning of the end of racism turned out to be the beginning of confusion over the course of action to ensure societal acceptance of political mandates. Hence, the title of this book captures the essence of the emotional core of any forum for examining racism, past and present. One of the most controversial forums has been that ofeducation, beginning with the D.S. Supreme Court's 1954ruling in Brown v. Board oi Education. Behind every event that has spawned controversy is a profile in courage. It was not a simple decision for the players in the scenario of the Brown v. Board oi Education case to step forward and present themselves as evidence of discrimination. Blackparents supported by black organizations viewed this legal action as a chance for equal opportunity. Yet, the 1950s were a time when black communities were pained by the thought that bigotry and institutional racism would forever stand in the way of their achieving equality.

Book Description
Just before the celebration of Thanksgiving in the year 1911, many groups were fragmented on multiple social and religious issues. As a result, parishioners from the First Presbyterian Russell Sage Memorial Church, of Far Rockaway, New York, and families of Temple Israel of Lawrence, New York, saw the importance of engaging in some form of dialogue that would bridge the multiple misunderstandings between the groups, thus, hoping to achieve somewhat an authentic interpersonal relationship. Today, this dialogue is successfully ongoing between these two original communities and craves the emulation from inauthentic groups across America
