    Google "African American Achievement Gap" and you should find
    lots of stuff.

    Things that I have spoken of are test bias...tests are not
    culturally fair...

    I'd say just be careful to phrase your answer so that you are
    not presuming that all of any racial or cultural group are
    living in poverty. I.e. Don't say something like - families
    are not as involved, do not have as many resources, etc. No
    global generalities. Speak directly from the research. There
    is tons on this topic. I'm surprised it wasn't covered in
    your college courses in education.
