Description

Explore the complexities of higher education through this academic volume from Routledge. This book examines the legal, institutional, and social factors that impact the college choice process for African American students and their families. By applying Critical Race Theory, the text challenges the false idea that these students or their families are opposed to formal education. Instead, the research reveals the structural barriers that prevent access to elite institutions. The text connects current educational inequalities to the long history of slavery and the legacy of institutional racism within the United States. This work is a significant resource for understanding how historical and social structures continue to shape the academic paths of high achieving students today.
