Year: 2018

Type: article

Abstract: As non-White people, they are perceived as inherently violent; as nonwealthy youth, they are viewed as in need of discipline and control; and as girls of color, they are believed to be lacking morals and values.Thus, the body of a Black or Brown girl is seen as simultaneously an inherent threat to school officials and other students as well as a threat to her own safety and well-being" (Bae-Dimitriadis & Evans-Winters, 2017, p. 418).
