Proweller, Amira
Teachers College Record, v100 n4 p776-808 Sum 1999

Students' voices illustrate how liberal discourses position youth and how white youth actively remake themselves in relation to prevailing meanings and practices institutionalized in private schools. Examines the intersections of race and class discourses in private-school culture. (SM)
