The bibliography is an initial step toward recognition of whatgeographers and other spatially-oriented social scientists and plannershave discovered about the place experience of ethnicand racial minorities in North America. It is organized according tominority groups on the assumption that distinctive culturesprecipitate distinctive place experiences. Only where a large number ofminority groups have"been treated for a specific place arereferences organized according to geographical location (i.e. Southern White,Canada, U.S. General, U.S. Northeast, U.S. Southeastand U.S. West.) Among the minoritY groups included'are the more numerousAfro-Americans, Amerindians, Chinese, Japanese, Italians, and PuertoRicans, and also, less known gorups such as the Basque,Dutch, Finnish, Gypsy, Swiss, Mormon,and Lebanese.(Author/AM) *********************************************************************** Documents acquired by ERICinclude many informal unpublished * materials not available fromother sources.

The geography of ethnic andracial minorities would seea to hold an important part of the answer asto how the acculturation process operates. Beyond questions of acculturation,however, lie more immediate communities to help us concerns.What can me learn from minority make human habitats more liveable? Howdo minority groups symbolize their identity in landscape?. How dothey organize their communities spatially? How are these communitiesdistributed in geographical space relative to prevailing land usesland rents, levels of accessibility, Modes of transportation,employment opportunities, political jurisdictions., etc.?Hotr does a sense of group belonging anchor itself in the lancoe?Do territorialfe4ings rooted in ethnii and racial difference,make for more or less satisfactory places? This bibliography is an initial step to seewhat geographers and other spatially-oriented socialscientists and planners have \ discovered about the place experiences of ethnicand racial minorities in North America.
