Description

School-smart and Mother-wise explores the complex relationship between American education and the identity of working-class women. This sociological study examines how educational systems can disadvantage women throughout their childhood and adult lives. Through a collection of personal accounts, the book provides a look into the lives of Black and white, rural and urban, southern and northern women who faced challenges in the classroom. By following these women from their early years to their time in adult education programs, the text reveals the specific circumstances that lead to school dropout. These individuals are not just seeking a diploma; they are pursuing respect, recognition, and a public identity. Wendy Luttrell uses these life stories to analyze the politics and psychodynamic aspects of gender and class in the educational landscape. This book serves as a deep look into the social forces that shape how women perceive themselves and their place in society.
