Posted on March 25, 2025 in Upcoming Reads
This month, TIE presents forthcoming titles on race and ethnicity in diverse contexts. Given the tremendous outpouring of titles submitted in response to the call for this list, we have broken it up by geography. Our hope is that this will help readers seek out those titles most relevant to their personal or research interests. With so much discussion in the news regarding diversity, it is more important than ever to remind ourselves of the nuances pertaining to diverse identities and how ethnically and racially diverse communities all contribute to flourishing societies. As such, these titles are sure to interest anyone seeking to learn more about race across contexts and all those committed to honoring diversity.
