 highlights the struggle of individuals learning about racism and changing 
 deeply imbedded beliefs. Acclaimed as the “Best Social Studies 
 Documentary of 1995” by the National Educational Media Association, this 
 film explores the complexity of ethnoracial difference, power and 
 community. It inspires discussions, opens minds and awakens hearts, setting 
 the stage for a new spirit of partnership.\n\nAbout The Curriculum\nTwo of 
 the film's principal cast members, Victor Lee Lewis and Hugh Vasquez, draw 
 upon more than 20 years of experience as educators, activists and trainers 
 on diversity issues to create a dynamic educational experience that picks 
 up where the film leaves off. The curriculum includes a combination of 
 interactive presentations, experiential exercises and group discussions 
 concerning the root causes or racial/ethnic divisions, the effects of 
 internalized racism, strategies for creating and maintaining coalitions, 
 and building a legacy of inter-ethnic alliances. It is a great starting 
 point for any and all educators, parents, students and community members\n
