The Mis-Education of the Negro

More about the book

Dr. Carter G. Woodson's work critiques the educational system of his time, asserting that it culturally indoctrinates rather than educates Black students. He argues that this indoctrination fosters dependency and encourages individuals to accept subordinate roles in society. Woodson advocates for self-education and empowerment, urging readers to challenge the narratives imposed on them and to take control of their own learning and destinies.
