  abstract = {{T}his paper highlights a particular mechanism underlying the exclusion process of indigenous people in {P}eru by analyzing the role of aspirations in educational investment. {R}elying on the {Y}oung {L}ives dataset, we find that indigenous children do not limit their aspirations when compared to non-indigenous children with the same socio-economic background. {F}indings suggest that they do not have internalized racial schemas about their opportunities. {H}owever, aspirations are a channel of inequality persistence between ethnic groups, exacerbating the effect of socioeconomic status on educational achievement. {I}ndeed, socioeconomic status predicts the level of aspiration which in turn impacts progress in language acquisition.},
