Educational attainment of Black children of immigrants in Canada: Evidence from the Ethnic Diversity Survey
This thesis examines the educational adaptation of children of black immigrants from Africa and the Caribbean. The influence of common shared values on the educational attainment of a segment of the new second generation---Black children of immigrants---is explored. The data are drawn from the 2002 Ethnic Diversity Survey. The findings illustrate that the educational experience of black children of immigrants is heterogeneous. Depending on both socioeconomic and ethnic attachment factors, different educational outcomes for black children of immigrants were observed.
