At the end of their initial year in the Teacher Trainee Program of the Los Angeles Unified School District, teacher trainees attend a series of presentations entitled Multicultural Week. I analyzed the content of the presentations and the teachers' views of stereotypes and of teaching culturally diverse children before and after the multicultural presentations. The presentations appeared to have little effect on how teachers think about these issues. On the basis of this analysis, I raise questions about the content and pedagogy of multicultural programs.
