Hidden in Blackness analyzes the experiences, perspectives, and development of Black immigrant students, while also complicating how race, ethnicity, nativity, and nationality are understood across the P–20 education landscape. The authors unpack how Blackness and anti-Black racism in the United States can foster Black immigrants becoming hidden in Blackness in schools and education research—meaning their Black identity is homogenized into a U.S. construction of Blackness while their ethnicity, nationality, and nativity go unacknowledged or is weaponized to subjugate other people of Color. The book culminates by offering the Black Diasporic Illumination (BDI) framework with recommendations for supporting these students with a positive sense of self and abilities in the face of racial realities. BDI bridges sociocultural ecology, ethnic-racial identity and socialization scholarship, asset orientations, and critical constructions of race and racism into a transdisciplinary approach for understanding the experiences of Black immigrants in U.S. education. “At a time when the importance of diversity, equity, and inclusion and social justice are being debated, this book strikes at the heart of how these issues are both present and absent in the research narratives related to Black immigrant students.” —From the Foreword by Janice B. Fournillier, Georgia State University “Essential insights for better seeing and serving the rich diversity of the Black immigrant student population. A groundbreaking contribution!” —Carola Suárez-Orozco, Harvard Graduate School of Education
