Black Men Changing the Narrative Through Education [Large Print]

By Walter R McCollum

The focus of this book is to show a different view of Black males on their quest to become game changers through higher education. Black males' absence from college enrollment, underachievement, and low rates of baccalaureate degree completion have been among the most pressing and complex issues in higher education. Most troubling than the problems themselves is the way they have been mishandled by educators and policy makers. Capitalizing on the troubled status of Black male students in higher education has yielded few solutions. Thus, educational outcomes for this population have remained stagnant due to the deficit orientation that is constantly reinforced in media, academic journals, and educational practice.
