VELASCO ORTIZ, Laura  y  RENTERIA, Daniela. Diversity and interculturality: The indigenous school in the context of migration. Estud. front [online]. 2019, vol.20, e022.  Epub 11-Dic-2019. ISSN 2395-9134.  https://doi.org/10.21670/ref.1901022.

The objective of the article is to describe and analyze cultural diversity in indigenous schools and the challenges of interculturality in the face of ethnic-racial discrimination. Methodologically, the article is based on a survey on cultural diversity to a sample of 14 schools and 21 focus groups, with students and teachers of the 70 schools of the indigenous education system in Baja California. The findings point to a school cultural diversity fed by the same elements that emerge as objects of ethnic-racial and migrant discrimination as the basis of the inferiorized construction of the indigenous -migrant and native categories-, around the practice of some indigenous language, the skin color, and ancestral origin. Some limitations of the article come from its attention to the population of students and although it considers the teaching interaction, it does not analyze the diversity of that actor in the school space.
