Race Class and Education

<p>One problem which continues to absorb social scientists is the way in which so much social deprivation stems from racial or class status. The discussion in this book is developed in two ways: firstly careful attention is given to an examination of the way minority groups create and maintain collective identities and action. Secondly the relationship between this movement and such topics as racism in schools schooling unemployment and West Indian involvement in sporting rather than academic activities is analysed together with the nature of the educational experience of different class and gender groups. </p>
