[s]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.[/s]
