Abstract
Gifted students are often regarded as the privileged recipients of the best a school district has to offer. On the one hand, gifted students have access to the best teachers, the most rigorous curriculum, and the best postsecondary options. However, gifted Black students also face unique academic, social/emotional, and college/career challenges, and a lot of brilliant Black students are overlooked. A major thrust of this chapter is to identify some conditions or barriers that cause the underrepresentation of Black students in gifted education and offer recommendations to support student achievement.
