The purpose of this guide is to give elementary social studies teachers supplementary materials to aid in the balancing of the view of the historical contributions made by black Americans, and to help develop attitudes which overcome prejudice and intolerance. Through discovery, concept and inductive teaching it is hoped that the students will develop: 1) respect for human rights and dignity; 2) positive self concept; 3) cross-cultural understanding and appreciation for the accomplishments, traditions, needs, and problems of other individuals; 4) understanding of the concepts of family, community, urban life, and human interaction and communication. There are several pages of resources listed including: children's books, short biographies, a list of local community organizations involved in urban and racial problems. (SBE)
