Abstract	Authors of color share their thoughts on diversity, difference, pluralism, privilege, and ethnicity in essays that are meant to speak to the attempt by white scholars to reserve to themselves the power to define these terms. Each writer represented in this collection is attempting to validate a marginalized perspective and its corollary arguments for what they are. The essays include: (1) "Social Movements and the Politics of Difference" (Cheryl Zarlenga Kerchis and Iris Marion Young); (2) "A Multicultural America: Living in a Sea of Diversity" (John A. Garcia); (3) "Racial and Ethnic Complexities in American Life: Implications for African Americans" (Lucius T. Outlaw); (4) "Whose Rights Shall We Promote?" (an interview with Robert Dawidoff); (5) "Five Faces of Oppression" (Iris Marion Young); (6) "Contemporary Chicano Struggles" (Isidro Ortiz and Paula Timmerman); (7) "Dominant Culture: El Deseo por un Alma Pobre (The Desire for an Impoversihed Soul)" (Maria Lugones and Joshua Price); (8) "Korean American Dilemma: Violence, Vengeance, Vision" (Edward T. Chang and Angela E. Oh); (9) "White Privilege: The Rhetoric and the Facts" (Carolyn B. Murray and J. Owens Smith); and (10) "Dialogue and Diversity: Communication across Groups" (Mary Jane Collier). (Contains 120 references.) (SLD)
