I have a few more suggestions to the list request for a few 'high
school level' books that might open up the reader's mind to the
reality of other perspectives.

Frantz Fanon     Black Skin, White Masks
Toni Morrison     The Bluest Eye
I   forget author             The Ugly American (about the Vietnam War
mindset of the authorities)
Albert Memmi   The Colonizer and the Colonized
P. Driben and R. Trudeau   When Freedom is Lost (Cdn natives)
Marvin Harris   Cannibals and Kings.   Anything by Harris is good,
very easy to read and very good at opening up the mind to other
options
Bernard Campbell   Human Ecology.   Again, very readable, yet it
opens the mind to the realities of the human envt and how different
people have made very intelligent adaptations to that envt...and
their 'differences' might be based on those adaptations.
