Recognition of Giftedness in Early Childhood and What Professionals Should Know About Students of Color

This is especially the case for children from low-income, racially, linguistically, and culturally different backgrounds. In this article, we suggest some equity-based changes to ensure that all children have access to the rigorous academic environments they need and deserve.
