Review: New book - Great read, delivered early..
Review: Why aren't there more reviews of this classic by an African American giant? - The second African American (after W.E.B. Dubois) to gain a PhD at Harvard, Woodson had a multifaceted career as an "American historian, author, journalist, and the founder of the Association for the Study of African American Life and History". ["He was one of the first scholars to study the history of the African diaspora, including African-American history. A founder of The Journal of Negro History in 1916, Woodson has been called the "father of black history" - cited from the Wikipedia biographical article]. On the one hand, Carter criticized the preference of White leaders for industrial-vocational training of blacks, because this would continue subservient status for Blacks in American society. Liberal arts education provided the background in history, science, culture and politics needed for Blacks to communIcate and exercise their citizen rights in society. But he also decried exaggerated tendencies toward cultural eclecticism on the part of some Black leaders. Carter ascribed to the professional principles of historians that stressed breadth and accuracy. In tracing the history of the Journal of Negro History (now Journal of African American History), I find that it emphasized solid and meaningful scholarship and chronicling of Black life in America up through the later 1960s, but in more recent time published articles have tended to move toward more eclectic and specialized themes. This is partly understandable because until the Brown vs. Board of Education and subsequent advances in civil rights Black writers and editors probably felt a need to concentrate on critical issues. However, given the turmoil over Black issues in recent years, there certainly is a need for the kind of work that Carter's own publications exemplified.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ great read
*by U***S on December 15, 2023*

This book is enlightening to the obstacles of the past since the emancipation of slavery. More towards the end of the book there’s the relevance of the obstacles that still exist within amongst the blacks today! This book also gives great references to African history. And it serves as a great starting point of the journey of learning more about the African history
