· How has each group been stereotyped? How accurate are these stereotypes?
· How do the social concepts of prejudice, discrimination, and privilege affect multicultural groups?
· How do the behavior and thinking patterns in U.S. society (biases, stereotypes, discriminatory practices) affect multicultural groups, especially regarding class systems and employment?
