Through the voice of British-born Black African youth, this book explores why and how some racial-ethnic and linguistic minority students fail academically while students from other linguistic minorities excel despite coming from similar socioeconomic backgrounds. Drawing on interpretive-qualitative research analysis, the author demonstrates the racial dimension of social capital in education that challenges the traditional social capital theory that recodes structural notions of racial inequality as primarily cultural, social, and human capital processes and interactions. In contrast to the typical focus on achievement gaps, the concept of opportunity gaps shows how and why language policies have shaped the educational experiences and outcomes of linguistic minority students. This book will be of interest to policy makers, practitioners and scholars of Multicultural Education, Black and African Diaspora Studies and Educational Sociology"--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aDiscrimination in education 615 0$aDiscrimination in education. 676 $a371.82996041 700 $aMessele$b Alganesh$01741803 801 0$bOCoLC-P 801 1$bOCoLC-P 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910860815903321 996 $aBritish-born Black African youth and educational social capital$94168044 997 $aUNINA
