Popis: |
This chapter explores intersections of class and ‘race’ in the context of HE. The chapter considers the largely unspoken whiteness of the HE environment in England, and then examines what ‘getting in, getting on, and getting out’ mean for students from Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic backgrounds. We focus on a number of individual student narratives that provide insights into how intersections of class and ethnicity shape HE experience and the opportunities for social mobility through HE. We tease out the opportunities, but also the constraints experienced by students from minority ethnic backgrounds, and how ‘race’ intersects with class and continues to shape the ways in which students’ identities are constituted in and through HE. |
