This work espouses that though African Americans have come a long
way, issues such as social, economic, health, educational,
judicial, political, cultural, and civil rights are of such a
critical nature that President Barack Obama must meet them head on
and in a manner different from that of mainstream America. With an
African American in the White House, there is no better time for
assessing the progress the United States has made in protecting the
rights of all its citizens. The Cultural Rights Movement:
Fulfilling the Promise of Civil Rights for African Americans offers
such an assessment, with an in-depth look at the Obama
administration's proposed initiatives as they relate to the African
American community and a survey of civil rights issues that need to
be reexamined in light of Obama's election. The Cultural Rights
Movement is a well-researched, powerfully written analysis of why a
substantial number of blacks have yet to get their piece of the
American dream. Coverage includes discriminatory lending practices;
unfair Congressional redistricting; disparities in physician care
and health outcomes; the low number of black students, faculty
members and coaches in mainstream universities; the phenomenal high
rate of blacks being arrested, convicted and incarcerated; the
continual growth of black underemployment and poverty; and the
near-total neglect of the reparations issue.
