- What racial identity development stage would you say you were in for each of these stages and why?
- What
factors can you think of that may have impacted any changes in
your racial identity development stages from one age to another? - Do
you feel that each of these stages could have been better supported by
the caregivers, educators, peers, or colleagues around you?
- Reflecting
on the McNickles section, what explains the perception gap that exists
between whites and African Americans when it comes to matters of race
and racism? Do you agree with McNickles? - The
ability to communicate in English is important for many jobs and
therefore some companies offer ESL (English as a Second Language)
courses to their non-English-speaking employees. One alternative to
requiring company-sponsored ESL instruction is to require that all
potential employees meet an English language proficiency standard before
they may be hired. Compare and contrast these two alternatives in
terms of advantages and disadvantages to the company.
