Abstract

The Rampton Committee on Education of Children from Ethnic Minority Groups is criticized for an emphasis in the United Kingdom on multicultural education that should more properly be placed on antiracist education. One must be taught about racism in his native culture in order to appreciate different cultures without prejudice. Proposed are guidelines for teacher training & curriculum content that examine institutional racism & cultural principles underlying the British instructional system. D. Dunseath.
