The Evolving Challenges of Black College Students
Author: Terrell L. Strayhorn
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1000980146
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
Presenting new empirical evidence and employing fresh theoretical perspectives, this book sheds new light on the challenges that Black Students face from the time they apply to college through their lives on campus.The contributors make the case that the new generation of Black students differ in attitudes and backgrounds from earlier generations, and demonstrate the importance of understanding the diversity of Black identity.Successive chapters address the nature and importance of Black spirituality for reducing isolation and race-related stress, and as a source of meaning making; students’ college selection and decision process and the expectations it fosters; first-generation Black women’s motivations for attending college; the social-psychological determinants of academic achievement, and how resiliency can be developed and nurtured; institutional climate and the role of cultural centers; as well as identity development; and mentoring. The book includes a new research study of African American male undergraduates who identify as gay or bisexual; discusses the impact of student-to-student interactions in intellectual development and leadership building; describes the successful strategies used by historically Black institutions with at-risk men; considers the role of parents in Black male students’ lives, and the applicability of the “millennial” label to the new cohort of African American students.The book offers new insights and concrete recommendations for policies and practices to provide the social and academic support for African American students to persist and fully benefit from their collegiate experience. It will be of value to student affairs personnel and faculty; constitutes a textbook for courses on student populations and their development; and provides a springboard for future research.

African-American Attitudes Toward Higher Education and Their Struggle with Collective Identity and the Burden of "acting White"
Author: Frederick LaRon Cope
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Electronic dissertations
Languages : en
Pages : 76
Book Description
This project explores the cultural shift from the value African- Americans during the time of Washington and DuBois placed on industrial and higher education to the value placed by contemporary African- Americans. This cultural shift is linked to African-American collective identity and the contemporary burden of "acting White." In an effort to understand the severity of the cultural shift, this project explores the debate between Washington and DuBois, explores how collective identity was formed within African-American culture, and provides a possible solution to eliminating the contemporary burden of "acting White" through cultural pluralism.

Transformative Ethnic Studies in Schools
Author: Christine E. Sleeter
Publisher: Multicultural Education
ISBN: 0807763454
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 177
Book Description
"Drawing on Christine Sleeter's review of research on the academic and social impact of ethnic studies commissioned by the National Education Association, this book will examine the value and forms of teaching and researching ethnic studies. The book employs a diverse conceptual framework, including critical pedagogy, anti-racism, Afrocentrism, Indigeneity, youth participatory action research, and critical multicultural education. The book provides cases of classroom teachers to 'illustrate what such conceptual framework look like when enacted in the classroom, as well as tensions that spring from them within school bureaucracies driven by neoliberalism.' Sleeter and Zavala will also outline ways to conduct research for 'investigating both learning and broader impacts of ethnic research used for liberatory ends'"--
