The plight of the Black male in American society has been
well-documented by scholars and practitioners. Although Black males
represent only 6 percent of the American population, they represent
about 40 percent of the prison population; the number of Black
males in prison and jail exceeds the number of Black males in
higher education. The homicide rates for Black males were 72.5
percent per 100,000, nearly eight times higher than for White
males. This bibliographic volume explores the extent to which
American academia has addressed these problems. It will be an
invaluable resource for researchers as well as practitioners in
social service programs.
In addition to more than 400 annotated publications, the book
includes a selected list of works on the African American male and
a compilation of doctoral dissertations. This publication will
serve as a reference in public as well as academic libraries, human
service agencies, government policymaking agencies, and in academic
courses in gender and ethnic studies, criminal justice, and social
psychology.
