| The Mis-Education of the Negro By Carter G. Woodson |
Originally published in 1933, Woodson's classic
work of social commentary examines how African
Americans, deprived of a knowledge of their
history, find itself disadvantaged in grappling with
the racism and other problems confronting the
community. Hard-hitting and uncompromising,
Woodson takes educated blacks to task for failing
to become servants of the race.
The ASALH edition is edited by Daryl Michael
Scott, Professor of History and Chair at Howard
University.
The Foreword is written by V. P. Franklin, editor of
The Journal of African American History, is
Professor of History at Dillard University.
