Intra-group Diversity in Education: What If Abigail Fisher Were an Immigrant . . .

Abstract

The article discusses the concept of intra-group diversity in education in America, focusing on education equality and cultural capital in U.S., as well as the U.S. Supreme Court's (USSC's) ruling in the 1954 education discrimination case Brown v. Board of Education. The article examines how the USSC case Fisher v. University of Texas at Austin, which deals with affirmative action, might have been adjudicated if plaintiff Abigail Fisher had been a non-Caucasian immigrant to the U.S.
