From Bystander to Upstander Teacher for Gifted Black Students Accused of Acting White

---

Gifted Black students experience many barriers that contribute to their under-representation in gifted
and advanced programs. One of the greatest negative influences comes from peer accusations of acting White
that undermine gifted and high-achieving Black students’ academic motivation and their interest in challenging
courses and programs. While some teachers are unaware of the acting White phenomenon as a form of race bullying,
other teachers may stand by and watch gifted Black students succumb to the pressures imposed by their Black peers.
This article calls attention to bullying and the acting White phenomenon and encourages teachers to become upstanders for gifted Black students. Upstanders are educators who recognize race-bullying situations and take conscientious, deliberate, and immediate steps to aid gifted Black students in need of help.

Keywords: gifted Black students, under-representation, bullying, racialized bullying, acting White, bystanders, upstanders, White identity development
