This timely book tackles underlying issues that see
disproportionate numbers of African American males with dyslexia
undiagnosed, untreated, and falling behind their peers in terms of
literacy achievement. Considering factors including dialectic
linguistic difference, limited phonological awareness, and the
intersectionality of gender, language, and race, the studies
included in this volume illustrate how classroom practices at
preschool and elementary levels are failing to support students at
risk of reading and writing difficulties. Promoting Academic
Readiness for African American Males with Dyslexia shows that it is
possible to provide every girl and boy, and particularly African
American boys with effective support and appropriate interventions
enabling them to read at a level that is conducive to ongoing
academic performance and success. This, argue the authors of this
volume, is vital to the social, emotional, moral, and intellectual
development of our society. This edited volume was originally
published as a special issue of Reading & Writing Quarterly:
Overcoming Learning Difficulties. It will be of great interest to
graduate and postgraduate students, researchers, and academics in
the field of African-American Education, Educational Equity, Race
studies, Multiple learning difficulties and Literacy development.
