Service-Learning and Multicultural/Multiethnic Perspectives: From Diversity to Equity.
Weah, Wokie; Simmons, Verna Cornelia; Hall, McClellan
Phi Delta Kappan, v81 n9 p673-75 May 2000

However, this movement sometimes ignores recipients' voices and what they, particularly communities of color, might have to offer. Reciprocal learning and working with others are essential. (MLH)
