   Fear of a "Black" America Multiculturalism and the African American Experience by Donald Earl Collins
   
   (PRWEB) September 10, 2004 -- Fear is the glue that holds together every American discussion of race and diversity, past and present. With a style that is at once accessible and provocative, freelance writer and "recovering academic" Donald Earl Collins tells the story of multiculturalism's death-like state because of its association with African Americans. Fear is the underlying reason for misreading multiculturalism as a "Black thing" that could destroy the fabric of American culture. He traces an important trajectory of American cultural thought in the lives of African Americans, in the lines of Black intellectuals and writers, and in the labels of White conservatives.
   ...
   Donald Earl Collins has used his gifts as a writer and intellectual to dig beyond the dense jargon and palpable fear around multiculturalism. He has created a work that reveals the nuances of American cultural misunderstanding and a historical guide for avoiding them.
   
   Donald Earl Collins is a freelance writer who has published in Black Issues in Higher Education, Gannett Suburban Newspapers, History of Education Quarterly, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, The Washington Post, and Radical Society. He lives in Silver Spring, Maryland with his wife and one-year-old son.
