  • This chapter focuses on exceptionality, specifically giftedness, in African American, Latinx, and emergent bilingual students (EB) due to the breadth and depth of existing literature on these populations relative to other minoritized groups. It also utilizes Critical Race Theory (CRT) as a framework to understand why these groups have historically been and continue to be excluded from gifted education. Systemic factors such as enrollment in low-resourced and overcrowded schools, tracking, school discipline, and criminalization of minoritized youth create educational inequities. Additionally, racism, narrow views of giftedness, linguistic discrimination, and the instruments and processes used to identify exceptionalities disproportionately impact African American, Latinx, and EB students. These factors often preclude minoritized students from being referred, identified, and placed in gifted programs. The chapter begins with a discussion of how giftedness has been defined. It reviews disparities in gifted education, analyzes said disparities using CRT, examines the unique experiences of gifted African American, Latinx, and EB students, and concludes with a discussion of approaches and recommendations to advance minoritized students' access and success.
