The Mis-Education of the Negro
About this book
Carter G. Woodson argues that a school can teach students to undervalue their own history, even when it appears to offer opportunity. He considers who controls curricula and what happens when schooling is disconnected from the needs of Black communities. The book invites readers to examine the assumptions that determine what is worth teaching.
