In Douglas E. Foley’s Learning Capitalist Culture (2010) he mentions that Bourdieu’s ideas on symbolic violence have been used by critical race and feminist scholars to discuss the mistreatment of oppressed groups. In their work, critical race and feminist scholars have pointed out that patriarchal and racist social settings are where students from oppressed groups experience symbolic violence (Gibson 1988 ; Foley 1990 ; Fordham 1996 ; Valenzuela 1999 ; Akom 2003 ; Pollock 2004 ; Yosso 2006 ; AEQ 2008a ; Urrieta Jr. 2003 ). In Learning Capitalist Culture (2010), Foley also mentions that many scholars in the United States have talked about Bourdieu’s ideas on symbolic violence as well as the monitoring of working-class minority students. Their work focuses on the ways in which institutional control is obtained. These include disciplinary policies (Ferguson 2001 ; Lomawaima 1994 ; Schnyder 2009 ), tracking (Oakes 2005 ), and social construction of failure (McDermott and Varenne 1998 ). These also include pseudoscientific labeling (Mehan et al. 1986 ), whiteness discourse (Pollock 2004 ; Lee 2005 ; Akom 2008, AEQ 2008a ), social networking and agency (Akom 2003 ; McCarty 2002 ; Stanton-Salazar 2001 ; Valenzuela 1999 ), and race, class, and gender articulations(López 2003 ; Moss 2003 ; Gonzales 2005 ; Urrieta Jr. 2003 ).
