Abstract

Recent editions of introductory economics textbooks reflect the actual or imputed interest of college students in minority group problems. The material is usually of a descriptive nature and at least fulfills the purpose of indicating to the reader that the author and implicitly the instructor share his interest. Unlike traditional topics, the accord ance of academic legitimacy to the subject through graphical constructs and policy recommendations based upon such analysis is noticeably absent, thereby perpetuating an apparent misconception among many black and white students that the sub ject is lacking in content and its introduction i& merely a form of appeasement. The following is material evolving from the black experience which I have used with students of introductory price theory.
