The Education of Black Males in a Post-Racial World examines the
varied structural and discursive contexts of race, masculinities
and class that shape the educational and social lives of Black
males. The contributing authors take direct aim at the current
discourses that construct Black males as disengaged in schooling
because of an autonomous Black male culture, and explore how media,
social sciences, school curriculum, popular culture and sport can
define and constrain the lives of Black males. The chapters also
provide alternative methodologies, theories and analyses for making
sense of and addressing the complex needs of Black males in schools
and in society. By expanding our understanding of how unequal
access to productive opportunities and quality resources converge
to systemically create disparate experiences and outcomes for
African-American males, this volume powerfully illustrates that
race still matters in 'post-racial' America.
This book was originally published as a special issue of Race
Ethnicity and Education.
