Abstract | In the early 1960s, colleges and universities in the United States launched dozens of new pre-college programmes for low-income and predominantly African American high school students. Many of these initiatives were inspired by the civil rights movement. Moved by the sit-ins, marches and boycotts that had riveted the nation, a range of educators -- mostly university professors and administrators -- created new programmes to help students ill-served by school systems marked by racism and inequality. Many of the leaders of these initiatives hoped not only to support particular students but also to make the United States a more just and equal society and to change the university by opening the door to a more diverse student body. Nevertheless, most pre-college programmes operated under a flawed conception of disadvantage that individualised the 'disadvantaged student' and thus disconnected African American young people from the histories and contemporary struggles of their communities.
