These materials are based around the different ethnic minority groups which make up the UK population. There are a range of reading and discussion tasks, which enable students to reflect on their own culture and minorities within it. This can be a sensitive subject, as it deals also with race and to some extent religion, so be sure to be sensitive to people's feelings and try not to promote your own opinions, but listen to those of your students.
