Affirming Race, Diversity, and Equity Through Black and Latinx Students’ Lived Experiences

Abstract: Immediately after President Obama’s successful campaign, many hypothesized that the United States had entered a post-racial era. This study uses critical race theory to examine how high-achieving Black and Latinx college students make meaning of and navigate affirmative action policy discourses in an era of colorblind racial politics. Semi-structured interviews with 46 alumni of two race-conscious college access programs illustrate how participants employ a race-conscious framework that affirms the reality of … Show more

“…The discussion was proceeding along the lines of "tut, tut […] this behaviour may be commonplace in some cultures, but we cannot have a bar of it in this country and in our university". This type of comment aligns with a hegemonic view in HE that perpetuates whiteness as the standard and limits inclusivity (Vue et al, 2017;Villegas et al, 2017). I raised the need to focus our academic attention on the state of desperation that may lead or force a student to behave in such a way.…”

“…In this way the visibility of dominant groups is connected to power where recognition is acknowledged and is advantageous (Brighenti, 2007;Lewis and Simpson, 2012;Settles et al, 2018). CRT points out that the acceptance of whiteness as the standard is privileged, by which all else is measured (Vue et al, 2017). It has been historically accepted that whites are the "marker of white superiority" and blacks the "marker of black inferiority" (Yancy, 2012, p. 18).…”

“…Table 3 reflects a range of uses of validity citations, including using one main source to guide selection of multiple methods to support validity (e.g., Winkle-Wagner et al, 2019), using an assemblage of sources to support different steps in supporting validity (e.g., Vue et al, 2017), and using a citation to support one aspect of validity but not citing other efforts (e.g., Wallace & Chhuon, 2014). Table 4 lists the articles that mentioned validity (or an analog) with no citation.…”

“…Many Black and Latinx students have faced challenges and have been excluded from equitable education and high-quality instruction (Montoya-Ávila et al, 2018). While some researchers have directed their attention to K-12 settings (Kohli et al, 2017), these problems also persist in higher education (Vue et al, 2017). Longstanding postsecondary and higher education instructional frameworks and methods have been criticized for their lack of progress and attention to diverse students' unique needs (Santangelo & Tomlinson, 2009).…”
