John Ogbu
John Uzo Ogbu (May 9, 1939 – 20 August 2003) was a
Nigerian-American anthropologist and professor known for his
theories on observed phenomena involving race and
intelligence , especially how race and ethnic differences played
out in educational and economic achievement. He suggested
that being a "caste-like minority" affects motivation and
achievement, depressing IQ scores . He also concluded that
some students did poorly because high achievement was
considered " acting white" among their peers. Ogbu was also
involved in the 1996 controversy surrounding the use of
African American Vernacular English in public schools in
Oakland, California . The 2000 book Eminent Educators:
Studies in Intellectual Influence focused on him as one of
"four intellectual giants of the 20th century."
John Ogbu
Born
John Uzo Ogbu
May 9, 1939
Nigeria
Died
20 August 2003 (age 64)
Early life and education
Born in the village of Umudome in Ebonyi State, Ogbu
attended Hope Waddell Training Institute and Methodist
Teachers' Training College. He enrolled at Princeton
Theological Seminary , but soon transferred to the University
of California, Berkeley to study anthropology , earning his
baccalaureate in 1965, his master's degree in 1969, and his
Ph.D. in 1971. He taught at UC Berkeley from 1970 until his
death.
Involuntary minorities
Ogbu argues [1] that cultural differences alone cannot account
for differences in minority education, since some minority
communities do quite well and others do not. In addition, he
observes that in some cases groups of people of the same
race but located in different countries manifested different
ability and/or achievement levels according to some
measures.
Ogbu points out that there are two kinds of differences
between cultures. There are primary differences, which existed
before cultures came into contact with each other. Then, there
are secondary differences, which come into existence when
two cultures interact with each other. He says that many of
these secondary differences are created by subordinate groups
in opposition to the cultural references of the dominant group.
In the U.S. context, Ogbu concluded that among U.S.
Americans there are "voluntary minorities" (groups of
immigrants who chose to come to the United States, and their
descendants) versus "involuntary" or "caste-like" minorities
(descendants of groups of persons who found themselves in
the United States, or under United States jurisdiction, against
their will). Voluntary minorities (e.g. Korean-Americans) tend
to manifest nonoppositional secondary differences with the
dominant culture. On the other hand, involuntary minorities
(e.g. Native Americans) tend to manifest oppositional
secondary differences with the dominant culture. However,
both voluntary nonoppositional cultural subjects and
involuntary oppositional cultural subjects are required to
adhere to dominant (white) American cultural frames of
reference if they want to acquire upward social mobility.
In Minority Education and Caste (1978), Ogbu argued that
involuntary minorities often adopted an oppositional identity
to the mainstream culture in response to a glass ceiling
imposed or maintained by white society on the job-success of
their parents and others in their communities. Therefore, he
reasoned, some non-whites "failed to observe the link between
educational achievement and access to jobs." [2]
Often, the oppositional culture/identity created by the
involuntary minority involves the incorporation of attitudes,
behaviors, and speech styles that are stigmatized by the
dominant group, which, of course, precludes those who adopt
the manifestations of the oppositional culture from external
success in the dominant culture. When immigrant minorities
(voluntary minorities) acquire the language of the dominant
culture, it is seen as an addition to the first language
(nonoppositional primary differences). However, when
nonimmigrant minorities (involuntary minorities) acquire the
language of the dominant culture, it is the negation of their
oppositional culture, and thus their cultural reality.
Acting white
In 1986 Signithia Fordham co-authored, along with Ogbu, a
study which concluded that some African American students
in a Washington, D.C. , high school did not live up to their
academic potential because of the fear of being accused of
"acting white." Ogbu further echoed these findings in his 2003
book Black American Students in an Affluent Suburb: A Study
of Academic Disengagement (which summarized his nine-
month research on the educational gap between white and
African-American students in the Shaker Heights City School
District located in the upscale Cleveland suburb of Shaker
Heights, Ohio ). He concluded that these students' cultural
attitudes hindered their own academic achievement and that
these attitudes are too often neglected by parents, educators
and/or policymakers.
Though the study's conclusions gained a popular foothold and
have been espoused by such noted figures as Bill Cosby, a
later study obtained different results. In 2003, Karolyn Tyson,
a sociologist, and William Darity Jr , an economist, both at the
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, directed an 18-
month study at eleven North Carolina schools which found
that white and black students have essentially the same
attitudes about scholastic achievement; students in both
groups want to succeed in school and show higher levels of
self-esteem when they do better in school. The results of this
study have been published in a book by Stanford sociologist
Prudence Carter [3]
A 2006 study titled An Empirical Analysis of "Acting White" by
Roland G. Fryer, Jr. at Harvard University and Paul Torelli
suggested that the phenomenon has a statistically significant
effect on black student achievement, but only in certain
school contexts. In public schools with high interracial contact
and among high achieving students, there was an effect, but
there was little or no effect in predominantly black or private
schools. [4]
African American Vernacular English
Main article: African American Vernacular English
In 1996, Ogbu played a prominent role in the debate about the
utility of African American Vernacular English. As a member
of a task force on African American education in Oakland,
California he noted that linguists (e.g., William Labov, John
Rickford, Walt Wolfram, and others) have long distinguished
between the "standard" or "proper" English required in the
classroom and black vernacular English spoken at home and
with peers. Ogbu encouraged teachers to become familiar with
and to make use of this variety (called " Ebonics" by the
Oakland Unified School District) in helping speakers of
African American Vernacular English acquire Standard
American English in addition to their "home" variety. |

Kimberly Anyadike (born 1994) is an African-American pilot
from Compton, California . She is known for being the
youngest African-American woman to complete a
transcontinental flight across the United States, flying a
single-engine Cessna 172 from coast to coast at the age of
15.
Born
1994
Compton, California, U.S.A.
Education
University of California, Los Angeles
Known for
Completing a transcontinental flight across the United States.
Early life
Born in 1994, Anyadike grew up in Compton, California. [1] She
has two siblings: an older brother and sister. [2] Her parents
are originally from Nigeria, [3] and their surname Anyadike
means "eye of the warrior" in the Igbo language. [4][5]
Anyadike took dance lessons at the Lula Washington Dance
Academy, served as a junior lifeguard at Venice Beach for five
years, and volunteered as a youth leader at her local church.
[3] At a young age, she showed a strong interest in medical
science and anatomy; her mother taught her to identify and
name all 206 bones in the body. [2] Anyadike later attended
science classes at the Charles Drew University Saturday
Science Academy, an L.A.-based STEM subjects program for
youth ranging in age from preschool to Grade 12. [2]
Aviation training
Anyadike took her first flying lessons at the age of 12,
attending an after-school aviation program offered by
Tomorrow's Aeronautical Museum for disadvantaged youths.
[6][7] She was inspired to take lessons after reading about
Jonathan Strickland, a earlier participant of the program who
became the youngest person to fly a fixed-wing aircraft and a
helicopter solo in a single day. [2] Anyadike paid for her flight
lessons with "museum dollars" earned by washing airplanes
and working odd jobs around the Compton Airport. [1] As part
of the program's requirements, she maintained a strong
academic record throughout the period. [3]
Despite having a fear of heights, Anyadike says that being in
the cockpit of a plane is "an amazing experience". [2]
Transcontinental flight
As Anyadike gradually built up 100 hours of flight time, she
conceived the idea of flying across the country. [8] She wanted
to inspire other youth, while also honouring the Tuskegee
Airmen , an African-American air combat unit that served
during World War II . [9]
Departing on June 29, 2009, [10] 15-year-old Anyadike flew a
single-engine Cessna 172 from Compton, California to
Newport News, Virginia and back, completing the journey in
13 days. [6][2][7] She was accompanied by adult safety pilot
Ronnell Norman, and Major Levi H. Thornhill, an 87-year-old
retired U.S. Air Force pilot who had served as a member of
the Tuskegee Airmen. [7]
Anyadike made at least a dozen scheduled stops along the
way, and navigated through thunderstorms as she flew across
Texas. [11] In Washington, D.C. , Congresswoman Laura
Richardson came to congratulate the young pilot, and in
Tuskegee, Alabama , Mayor Omar Neal proclaimed July 2 to be
"Kimberly Anyadike Day". [10] During stops in different cities,
Anyadike's plane was autographed by about 50 different
Tuskegee Airmen. [6][2][11] Major Thornhill acted as
Anyadike's representative to make the necessary introductions
with regional chapters of the airmen. [8]
Although the record had never been officially tracked before
her journey, [7][9] Anyadike is considered to be the youngest
African-American woman — and possibly the youngest person
of any race or gender — to have successfully piloted a plane
coast-to-coast across the United States. [11][1][6][2][9]
Upon her arrival home on July 11, 2009, Anyadike received an
award from the County of Los Angeles, and was personally
invited by Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger to visit the
California State Capitol. [10]
In May 2015, Anyadike received the Tuskegee Airmen's
inaugural Young Aviator's Award in Tuskegee, Alabama, in
recognition of her achievements as a pilot. [2]
In 2017, Anyadike was interviewed about her transcontinental
flight for a special Disney Channel segment for Black History
Month entitled 'True Heroes Are Timeless'. [12][13][14]
College education
For her college education, Anyadike enrolled at the University
of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) , majoring in physiological
science with minors in African-American studies and Spanish.
[2] During her senior year, she was also working as a
registered emergency medical technician, and was
volunteering for her local chapter of the Flying Samaritans to
bring medical care to Tijuana , Mexico. [2]
She graduated with her undergraduate degree from UCLA in
June 2016. [15] When asked about future aspirations, Anyadike
has said that she plans to enroll in medical school and
become a cardiovascular surgeon. [2][3] 1 Like |
