The problems of young black males are challenging, complex, and
chronic, perplexing educators, social scientists, and policymakers.
While other groups, including women and recent immigrants, have
made economic and social gains in the last two decades, black youth
are now more likely than they were in 1960 to be unemployed, to be
involved in the criminal justice system, to be unwed fathers, and
to commit suicide. Young black males are a population at risk in an
escalating cycle of deviance, dysfunction, and despair.
This comprehensive volume provides in-depth analyses of the
deteriorating status of black youth, particularly black males.
Experts from a variety of professions examine the implications and
interrelationships of the multiple problems facing black youth and
propose a comprehensive set of policies and programs that address
those problems. They consider such important economic,
sociocultural, and political issues as unemployment, teenage
pregnancy, crime and delinquency substance abuse, and the
conservative backlash against civil rights and social welfare
programs.
