Introduction: The Minorities in American Life series is designed to illuminate hitherto-neglected areas of America’s cultural diversity. Each author treats problems, areas, groups, or issues that cannot ordinarily be examined in depth in the usual surveys of American history and related subjects. Although all the volumes are connected to each other through the unifying theme of minority cultures, the series is flexible and open to a number of uses.

By opening minority studies to young people, the series also meets a social and educational need. By providing the short, sound, and readable book on heir life and culture, and by accepting them on their own terms, the series accords minorities the justice and appreciation for their heritage that they have seldom received. By dealing with live issues in a historical context, it also makes the role of minority vulture in American life meaningful to young people and opens new doors to an understanding of the American past and present.
