Identity for Sale: The Limits of Racial Reform in Urban Schools.
Ginwright, Shawn A.
Urban Review, v32 n1 p87-104 Mar 2000
Examined the interaction of social class and racial identity in urban school reform. Presents a case study of reform at one urban California high school which used an Afrocentric curriculum to help improve academic performance, arguing that the effort was ineffective because it failed to consider ways in which poverty influenced the identities of students within the school.
