Who Cares About Black Boys : 9781733579636

Schools are sending a message to and about African American males that do not convey they are valuable and intellectually capable of academic success. In this book, Dr. Ivory presents relevant research surrounding the plight of Black males in education in a reader-friendly format. It will become more evident throughout the book that Black males continue to need others who believe in their abilities to be successful learners because they are most capable. Understanding and acknowledging how Black males cope with and respond to the cultural environment of their school is critical if educators plan to increase academic achievement for this group of students.
