Explorations in Ethnic Studies

This special issue of the journal on the theme of "Race, Class, and Gender" results from papers presented at the Association's 1993 national conference held at Salt Lake City, Utah. Under the able guidance of conference co-organizers, Alberto Pulido and Jennifer Pierce, the meeting was an outstanding success both in attendance and active participation. Fortunately, both Jennifer and Alberto enthusiastically agreed to be co-editors of this special issue.
