===== Date and country of first publication<ref>Date and country of first publication as informed by the Scopus database (December 2023).</ref>===== 1999<br> United States ===== Definition ===== Black class segregation refers to the practice of separating black students from white students in educational institutions based on their social or economic backgrounds. This form of segregation is primarily driven by factors such as racial discrimination, socioeconomic disparities, and unequal access to resources and opportunities. Historically, black class segregation was prevalent in the United States during the era of racial segregation laws, commonly known as "Jim Crow" laws. Under these laws, black students were often forced to attend separate and inferior schools compared to their white counterparts. These segregated schools typically had limited funding, inadequate resources, and lower-quality education, perpetuating educational inequities. Although legal segregation was abolished with the landmark Supreme Court case, Brown v. Board of Education in 1954, de facto segregation in education based on socioeconomic factors still persists. Many urban areas with predominantly black populations face concentrated poverty and limited access to quality education, leading to the segregation of black students into schools with high rates of poverty and underperforming academic outcomes. The consequences of black class segregation can be detrimental, as it perpetuates educational disparities and limits opportunities for social mobility. It further exacerbates socioeconomic inequalities, as students from disadvantaged backgrounds are disproportionately affected. Overcoming black class segregation requires addressing systemic issues such as poverty, unequal funding for schools, and providing equal access to quality education resources. ==See also== ==Related segregation forms== Black class segregation is frequently discussed in the literature with the following segregation forms: [[residential segregation]], [[class segregation]] [[File:black_class_segregation.png|780x780px]] This visualization is based on the study [[Segregation_Wiki:About| The Multidisciplinary Landscape of Segregation Research]].
