This book explores the role and experience of African American
women scholars and educators in the field of human, family, and
consumer sciences. Its five sections cover careers in education,
the role of historically Black colleges and universities,
opportunities and challenges brought about by the
internationalization of the field, opportunities for new careers

with experiences in research, teaching, outreach, and service.
Taken together, the essays capture the vitality and diversity of
knowledge that has, over time, assisted in transforming the field.

line to leafy London suburbia, strange things are happening . . .
