- This book aims to disrupt deficit discourses about Black male achievement by interrogating in-depth the findings from two studies that focus on Black men achieving educational success in different school and higher educational spaces in the UK. Through an intersectional analysis the book examines the political, cultural and structural factors that shape the educational journey, experiences and attainment of young African and Caribbean men in the British educational system. It provides an important theoretical and empirical intervention in advancing an anti-deficit narrative essential in changing the narrative about Black men's achievement capabilities.
