One of the most vexing problems confronting educators today is the
chronic achievement gap between black male students and their
peers. In this inspiring and thought-provoking book, veteran
educator Baruti K. Kafele offers a blueprint for lifting black
males up and ensuring their success in the classroom and beyond.
Motivating Black Males to Achieve in School and in Life offers
proven strategies for getting black male students in middle school
and high school to value learning, improve their grades, and
maintain high standards for themselves. The author shows how simple
but powerful measures to instill self-worth in young black males
can not only raise these students' achievement, but also profoundly
alter their lives for the better. This book will help you to help
students: Reverse the destructive effects of negative influences,
whether among peers or in the popular culture. Surmount adverse
conditions at home or in their communities. Participate in
mentorship programs with successful black male adults. Take pride
in their heritage by learning about great figures and achievements
in black history. Whether your school is urban or rural, all-black
or mixed, you'll find this book to be an insightful resource that
addresses the root causes of low achievement among young black
males and offers a clear path to overcoming them.
