Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Critical race theory emphasizes that dominant institutions tend to overlook or undervalue certain skills, resources, and assets within marginalized communities. These may include linguistic abilities, cultural practices, social networks, and other forms of knowledge that are central to the experiences and resilience of people of color. In this context, the concept of community cultural wealth highlights the various forms of intellectual, social, and navigational capital that exist within communities of color, and challenges deficit-based approaches that view them as lacking or deficient. While social capital and color awareness are related to this notion, they do not capture the same breadth and depth of the assets and strengths that critical race theory seeks to amplify. Cultural superiority is not a concept supported by critical race theory, as it can reinforce hierarchies and essentialize cultural differences.
