Also in this edition, contributing editor Lydia Lum explores the Asian diaspora in Latin America in “The Hybridization of Ethnic Studies,” and Victoria Lim writes about Hispanic educators’ efforts to launch an Advanced Placement course on Latin American history. Finally, our Last Word columnist Dr. María Ledesma adds context to the debate over whether Sen. Barack Obama’s ascension to the highest ranks of a major political party means affirmative action is no longer needed.
Former editor Hilary Hurd Anyaso left us a good blueprint to build upon. Moving forward, you will find in the magazine as well as at DiverseEducation.com bold, hard-hitting, relevant and compelling stories told in a variety of formats. We want to hear your comments and suggestions. Together, those of us who are passionate about diversity in the academy will have our voices heard loud and clear.
