%X Two Aboriginal and White educators co-developed and taught an integrated anti-racist course for predominantly White preservice teachers in Saskatchewan. Analysis of student comments yielded three common ideological assumptions contributing to student resistance: race doesn't matter; everyone has equal opportunity; and one's individual acts and good intentions can secure innocence as well as superiority. Strategies for countering such beliefs are discussed.<p />
