Authors Patricia Gandara and Frances Contreras discuss their book and findings at the Chicano Studies Resource Center. Sociology Professor Ruben Hernandez is the critic.
there is already european american studies. Its what is the called history and it is the white centered curriculum that you learn in your public elementary, middle, and high school.
LOL....this guy must have missed US history 101 and how is it considered indoctrination? Most of these programs are founded on pedagogy of criticism from white revistionist historians. You should start Euro-American studies, however, good luck not making it seem supremacist studies.
Also, were you serious about the caucuses? Most of the U.S. political spectrum IS European-American (or White.) Most interns anywhere are white, (that is one huge unofficial caucus if you ask me.) You are welcomed to start an official one if you'd like, but like I said, in the past section, it doesn't seem as logical considering the numbers.
Don't take this as me attacking you or anything, just letting ya know so hopefully you can understand a little better.
I would love to study European-American studies, but there needs to be people who would want such a program and it's establishment, but the purpose of it could seem a bit questionable except for it's historical purposes. Whites are a majority in the country, in numbers and power, opposed to black and brown power. That clear?
Well what it seems to you isn't necessarily what is true, so i don't know where you want to go with that. There are reasons for there being majors like Chicano and African-American studies. For one, they have been all subject to vast exploitation and discrimination, I don't see how you don't see how that could bring up such programs as these to try and better relations.
Because there is a crisis in Education especially for Latino Students, with higher dropout rates, and lower college degree attainment than any other group.
