Klappentext zu „The Pathologizing and Complicity of "Brown Boys" “
Despite the abolishment of discriminatory policies that have historically marginalized many students from certain racial and ethnic groups, there are still groups in North America that continue to experience the lasting effects of this discrimination. One such group is South Asian boys. This book - grounded in twelve months of critical ethnographic fieldwork at a secondary school in North America - attempts to fulfill three objectives. First, it examines how educators and educational leaders pathologize the lived experiences of South Asian boys or "Brown boys", and how they engage in deficit theorizing discourses and practices. Second, it shows how Brown boys are complicit in the pathologizing of their own identities, which can exacerbate their disaffection and failure at school. Third, it provides all educators and educational leaders with alternative pedagogical, curricular, institutional, and relational approaches to not only understand the schooling experiences of disaffected South Asian male students, but to mitigate the factors that may exacerbate the disaffection of all minoritized students.

Pressezitat
«Beautifully and forcefully written, thorough and well documented, 'The Pathologizing and Complicity of «Brown Boys»' is a powerful, disturbing, and provocative examination of the experiences of a group of marginalized high school students.» (Carolyn M. Shields, Wayne State University)«The author provides detailed descriptions of what people who work in schools do to reproduce social ine-quality and, by implication, what well-meaning school people could do to reverse this all-too-common out-come of schooling.» (Robert Donmoyer, University of San Diego)
