Description

Explore a deep sociological analysis of academic performance in Black American students through this study by John Ogbu. Published by Routledge, this work provides a comparative perspective based on over 30 years of research into minority education. The study, which was jointly sponsored by the community and the school district in Shaker Heights, Ohio, examines the complex factors behind academic disengagement. This book addresses critical findings regarding how Black American students perform in comparison to White students across every social class level. It also examines the performance gap between Black American students and immigrant minority students, including Black immigrant students. By looking at both middle-class students in suburban districts and poor students in inner-city schools, this text offers a comprehensive view of the educational landscape and the sociocultural, political, and historical forces at work in modern schooling.
