In conclusion, the truth is multiculturalism can be a big factor in adult education
for a better world we can all live in. Whereby power and inclusion end oppression,
in Banks’ and Nieto’s theories. All of these theories have fundamental elements
like awareness, competence, and advocacy for minorities, cultures, and races.

Critical Race Theory
Challenge and change structures of power
inherent in education and bring about political
progress through policy and social change.
(Ianinska, Wright , & Rocco, 2005).
Nieto’s Theory
Proposes a definition with characteristics in a socio-political
context, namely in context of communities and the
process of education. (Multicultural Education, 2014). Bank’s Theory
Not only does Bank’s theory of multiculturalism inform adult
education, it also offer actionable steps to support
inclusion and fostering power rather than
oppression in minority adult learners.
