This volume dedicated to the engagement of African American males
in community colleges furthers the research agenda focused on
improving the educational outcomes of African American males. The
theme engagement also supports the anti-deficit approach to
research on African American males developed by renowned research
scholars. The true success of African American males in community
colleges rests on how well these institutions engage young men into
their institutions. This will require community colleges to examine
policies, pedagogical strategies, and institutional practices that
alienate African American males and fosters a culture of
underachievement. The authors who have contributed to this volume
all speak from the same script which proves than when African
American males are properly engaged in an education that is
culturally relevant, they will succeed. Therefore, this book will
benefit ALL who support the education of African American males. It
is our intent that this book will contribute to the growing body of
knowledge that exists in this area as well as foster more inquiry
into the achievement of African American males. The book offers
three approaches to understanding the engagement of African
American males in community college, which includes empirical
research, policy perspectives and programmatic initiatives.
