| Description | The author of scholarship that focused exclusively on the American South, C. Van Woodward was arguing that mine should have been cross-national in order to be “balanced.” Woodward's contrast of the “millions of corpses” and the “horrors of genocide” in Nazi Germany to racial violence in the United States seemed both heartless and beside the point. The purpose behind the pluralism is to encourage students of “all racial and ethnic groups to believe that they are part of the society and that they should develop their talents and minds to the fullest. The campaign against multiculturalism reflects a larger social nervousness, a perplexity over the changing racial composition of American society. The “education of open-ness,” with its celebration of diversity, is threatening the social contract that had defined the members of American society as individuals.
