Connections

School: Robert F. Kennedy

Connection: Delpit Culture of Power

School educator data shows that 0% of educators in that school identify as Hispanic meanwhile 57.4% of students identify as Hispanic it is the highest reported ethnicity for students. This relates to Delpit because the culture of power is the educators in the school none of which identify as Hispanic this could lead to problems when teaching students who are not aware of certain rules this culture has and educators may not know this and adjust and accommodate to these students because they may assume these students know these rules before hand.
