In this work, renowned public servant and author James A. Joseph uncovers the long history of giving among people of colour. Focusing on four communities - Native Americans, African Americans, Asian Americans, and Latinos - Joseph draws compelling portaits of cultural heroes and heroines who personify the benevolent nature of their unique heritage. The author maintains that by understanding and affirming these traditions, we can form a new vision of the larger American community based on shared values, universal compassion, and a new spirituality.
