This volume highlights issues of power, inequality, and resistance
for Asian, African American, and Latino/a students in distinct U.S.
and international contexts. Through a collection of case studies it
links universal issues relating to inequality in education, such as
Asian, Latino, and African American males in the inner-city
neighborhoods, Latina teachers and single mothers in California,
undocumented youth from Mexico and El Salvador, immigrant Morrocan
youth in Spain, and immigrant Afro-Caribbean and Indian teenagers
in New York and in London. The volume explores the processes that
keep students thriving academically and socially, and outlines the
patterns that exist among individuals-students, teachers,
parents-to resist the hegemony of the dominant class and school
failure. With emphasis on racial formation theory, this volume
fundamentally argues that education, despite inequality, remains
the best hope of achieving the American dream.
