Historically, African American communities were marked by a strong
sense of community, promoted by limited resources and racial
segregation. However, with integration, African American
populations grew less concentrated in the same areas, and this
population of people began to rely less on each other. In an effort
to attain equality, which still at times feels elusive and
challenged, the sense of community and impact of education once
prevalent among African Americans has suffered. Fostering
Collaborations Between African American Communities and Educational
Institutions is a pivotal reference source that explores
pre-segregation experiences of community and education, as well as
the changes among HBCUs and public education in predominately
African American and poor areas. The book sheds light on the
relationship between racial and educational disparities and reveals
the impact of community and cultural co-dependence in moving
African Americans toward a more socially equitable place within
American culture. Covering topics such as the achievement gap,
community relationships, and teacher education, this publication is
ideally designed for educators, higher education faculty, HBCUs,
researchers, policymakers, non-profit organizers, historians,
sociologists, academicians, and students.
