Beschreibung:
Young black women bear all the hallmarks of a fundamentally unequal society. They do well at school, contribute to society, are good efficient workers yet, as a group they consistently fail to secure the economic status and occupational prestige they deserve. This book presents a serious challenge to the widely held myth that young black women consistently underachieve both at school and in the labour market. In a comparative study of research and writig from America, Britain and the Caribbean Young, Female and Black re-examines our present understanding of what is meant by educational underachievement, the black family and, in particular, black womanhood in Britain.
Chapter 1 Introduction; Chapter 2 The myth of underachievement; Chapter 3 Do schools make a difference?; Chapter 4 Life in the classroom; Chapter 5 Entering the world of work; Chapter 6 Strategic careers; Chapter 7 Redefining black womanhood; Chapter 8 Family matters; Chapter 9 Conclusion;
