Rereading America has remained the most widely adopted book of its kind because of its unique approach to the issue of cultural diversity. Unlike other multicultural composition readers that settle for representing the plurality of American voices and cultures, Rereading America encourages students to grapple with the real differences in perspectives that arise in our complex society. With extensive editorial apparatus that puts readings from the mainstream into conversation with readings from the margins, Rereading America provokes students to explore the foundations and contradictions of our dominant cultural myths.
 Rereading America offers a broad collection of writing on the cultural myths that shape the thinking of my students. Approaching these myths from a variety of directions helps my students become conscious of what influences their thinking and how they can actively shape those influences. Rereading America helps my students become critical thinkers.”
