About this title

Synopsis

This study analyzes the socioeconomic origins of the theory and practice of de jure segregated school facilities for Mexican-Americans, tracing the educational experience of several generations of Mexican-American children.

Review

""Chicano Education" must be required reading for graduate students of the history of education and Chicana/o-Latina/o studies. The text is also ideal for upper-level undergraduate courses as each chapter can stand alone. . . . Scholars and students seeking to understand the severe undereducation and generational poverty of contemporary Latino families will appreciate Gonzalez's carefully grounded, evidence-based assessment."--"New Mexico Historical Review"

"[Gonzalez] successfully identifies the socioeconomic and political roots of the inequality of education of Chicanos. . . . It is an important historical and policy source for understanding current and future issues affecting the education of Chicanos."--Dennis J. Bixler-Marquez, International Migration Review

"[T]his book is a most welcome contribution to the field. It should be required reading for those interested in ethnic studies, education, and history."--Guadalupe San Miguel, Jr., Teachers College Record
