Abstract: | In their treatment of racial and ethnic minorities, the books were liberal. Although two of them contained portrayals of African-Americans tainted by racism, they generally espoused an antiprejudice message. Only in dealing with issues of class were the books conservative. Given these findings, the view of 1950s "dominant culture" as uniformly conservative cannot be sustained. |
