The introduction of 'Black' studies programs into institutions of
higher education was a direct response to the mandate for change at
all levels that characterized the civil rights movement and the
social rebellions of the 1950s and 1960s. In Out of the Revolution,
Delores P. Aldridge and Carlene Young collect thirty-one of the
nation's top scholars to provide a complete reference for
understanding the impetus for, the development of, and future
considerations for the discipline of 'Africana' studies. Topics
addressed include epistemological considerations; humanistic
perspectives; the role of bureaucracy and the academic institution;
the social, psychological, political, and economic dimensions; the
position of black women in the field; and how the discipline has
empowered the black student. This invaluable resource for educators
and students alike concludes with a look at graduates in Africana
studies and their careers and a discussion of the future of the
field.
