The second edition of this source book contains essays and annotations on a number of issues related to multicultural education. The authors define multicultural education as a process-oriented creation of learning experiences that foster an awareness of, respect for, and enjoyment of the diversity of our society and world. Inherent in this definition of multicultural education is a commitment to create a more just and equitable society for all people. This book, then, offers suggestions relevant to the teaching of all children, all teaching and curricular decisions, and every aspect of educational policy.
It has been 20 years since the little pageant beauty JonBenét was found murdered in grimly grotesque fashion. There has been so much focus in particular upon Patsy Ramsey her mother, that now, since her death, with no whipping horse to relentlessly pursue, the media have turned empty-handed to Burke Ramsey, JonBenét's only sibling who has the same set of parents. Now that he is a man, as opposed to a 9 year old boy, they feel quite justified in sinking the boot in. It seems not to have occurred to them that accusing a young man of a childhood crime against his sister so grossly sinister could bring about dire psychological consequences. Yet, we would not want to protect anyone who had committed a crime of this nature. The questions must be asked, because still today, we have no answers. Who did kill JonBenét? This is a forensic numerological profiling and analysis of Patsy, John, and Burke Ramsey at the time of JonBenét's murder, as well as a few suspicious identities on the periphery of this heinous crime.
Finally, the information you've been waiting for: who really killed JonBenet? Perhaps the most compelling murder case of our day, the death of six-year-old JonBenet Ramsey galvanized the nation-and years after it occurred, the mystery still endures. Who killed the young beauty queen and why? Who is covering up for whom and who is simply lying? In JonBenet, the most authoritative and comprehensive study of the Ramsey murder, a former lead Boulder Police detective, Steve Thomas, explores the case in vivid and fascinating detail-pointing the way toward an analysis of the evidence some deem too shocking to consider. Here, Thomas raises these and many other provocative questions: -How was the investigation botched from the beginning-and why did police so carelessly allow the crime scene to be tampered with? -Why were John and Patsy Ramsey protected from early questioning and any lie-detector tests, even though their stories and behavior were erratic, suspicious and inconsistent? -Why was crucial evidence ignored, why were certain key witnesses unquestioned by detectives, and why were the Ramseys privy to sensitive information about the case and even police reports?

New information from We Have Your Daughter has been revealed. Here is some of it. The Family As a top reporter in Denver, Paula Woodward was one of the few who had access to the Ramsey attorneys and thus the family. One of the prevailing questions in most of the television specials is about the bowl of pineapple on the kitchen table with Burke and Patsy’s fingerprints on the bowl. That pineapple has been linked to JonBenét’s death on some television broadcasts because of a reference in the autopsy to JonBenét having “fragments like pineapple” in her stomach. For more than a year after the murder, the pineapple theory behind her death was talked about. But when Boulder police finall...
