Emergent Gender Roles Within Tween Popular Culture: Perspectives From Mexican American Students in a Fifth-Grade Classroom
This study examines fifth-grade Mexican American students’ beliefs about emergent gender roles. We used participant-observation methodology to conduct research on six focal-student participants selected from the general fifth-grade population at an elementary school located in the Southwestern United States. Collected data included focal-student interviews, classroom observations, and survey responses. We included an account of gender differences…
Contradictory Literacy Practices of Mexican-Background Students: An Ethnography From the Rural Midwest
This ethnographic study explores the contradictory literacy practices of 10 high school students of Mexican background from the rural Midwest. The author uses the term Mexican background to encompass both settled Mexican Americans and recent-immigrant Mexicanos. Literacy is investigated through English and Spanish in a sociocultural context. Findings reveal how Mexican-background students demonstrate different literacy practices in their homes an…
Mesocentrism and Students of Mexican Background: A Community Intervention for Culturally Relevant Instruction
How does the integration of information about a student's ancestral culture elicit a more positive motivation for their learning at school? Chicano activists in the Southwest exposed middle school students to a program of instruction based on Mesoamerican ancestry. The program's effectiveness is analyzed through a quasi-experiment. A pre- and postsurvey measured cultural awareness, desire, effect, reading preference, self-esteem, and self-concept…

Sociology and education theorists writing on the subject of racial antagonism have tended to ignore the critical role played by popular culture and the electronic media in the reproduction of racial antagonism (Giroux, 1994b). Although there is a rise of a multicultural literature within the field that has from its inception drawn attention to the representation of minorities in educational and cultural forms, such writing has concentrated mainly…
The hypocrisy of completeness: Toni Morrison and the conception of the other
There is a scene in the cultural writings of English colonialism which repeats so insistently after the early nineteenth century — and, through that repetition, so triumphantly inaugurates a literature of empire — that I am bound to repeat it once more. It is the scenario, played out in the wild and wordless wastes of colonial India, Africa, the Caribbean, of the sudden, fortuitous discovery of the English book. (Bhabha, 1986: 163) Proof like Dou…
