Untold Narratives

More about the book

Focusing on the experiences of African American students with disabilities, this edited volume addresses the scarcity of scholarly voices in this area. It challenges the prevalent deficit perspective by highlighting strength-based narratives and personal accounts from students labeled with learning disabilities, visual or hearing impairments, and other cognitive challenges. By amplifying these often-ignored voices, the book seeks to reshape the understanding of their roles within both general and special education systems, offering a more inclusive perspective on their educational journeys.
