(4) YA What Do You Think? series. This book addresses the civil rights movement in the United States, including such topics as legal and social reforms and prejudice today (e.g., racial profiling); a case study of Hurricane Katrina helps ground the issue. Though it's not nuanced, the text effectively models balanced thinking for beginning debaters. The many photographs, sidebars, and headings clutter the pages. Reading list, websites. Glos., ind.
