Abstract
This article presents the argument that instructors of courses in the psychology of women need to integrate the scholarship on ethnicity into their curriculum. We offer a possible structure for including this content by organizing the course discussions around major themes. The course consists of presentations based on these themes. Examples of films, topics, exercises, and popular books to be used are presented. Implications of incorporating the contents for other courses in the psychology curriculum are discussed.Keywords
