Black Studies and the Democratization of American Higher Education

"This book presents the evolution of black studies as a force for the expansion of the American mind and academy. The author argues that black studies aids in the democratization of American higher education and the deconstruction of traditional disciplines of higher education. By challenging traditional disciplines, black studies reveal not only the political role of American universities but also the political aspects of the disciplines that constitute their core."--Page [4] of cover.
