“…Many scholars focus on making change by altering educators’ deficit mindsets not just about their marginalized students but about marginalized parents and families (Aragon, 2018; Colegrove & Krause, 2017; Cooper et al, 2010; Jimenez-Castellanos & Gonzalez, 2012; Jones, 2013; Gonzales, 2012; Kelley, 2020; Manzo, 2016; Monzó, 2013; Miller, 2010; Quan, 2017; Stacy et al, 2019). They seek to encourage scholars to see assets of students’ communities (Hartlep & Xiong, 2018).…”

Deficit framings of marginalized students, though maintaining widespread social influence, are thoroughly condemned in recent educational scholarship. The goal of this “counter-deficit” scholarship is to challenge racism in schools and improve opportunities for marginalized youth. To meet the lofty ambition of racial equity in education, how scholarship understands racial oppression is a central concern. Sociologists of race have emphasized the duality of racial oppression. Racism is ideological and structural. Ideologically, racism shapes how communities of color are perceived and how they are treated in educational settings. Structurally, racism is embedded in histories and policies that systematically disadvantage racially minoritized people. Both processes matter to educational inequality. However, in this review of counter-deficit literature, we find that racism is primarily understood by way of ideology and seldom by way of structures. This framing has important implications for how schools can support racially minoritized students to overcome racism in schools and communities.
