{"product_id":"black-education-9780805854589","title":"Black Education","description":"\u003cp\u003ePublished for the American Educational Research Association by Routledge. This volume presents the findings and recommendations of the American Educational Research Associations (AERA) Commission on Research in Black Education (CORIBE) and offers new directions for research and practice. By commissioning an independent group of scholars of diverse perspectives and voices to investigate major issues hindering the education of Black people in the U.S.  other Diaspora contexts  and Africa  the AERA sought to place issues of Black education and research practice in the forefront of the agenda of the scholarly community. An unprecedented critical challenge to orthodox thinking  this book makes an epistemological break with mainstream scholarship. Contributors present research on proven solutions--best practices--that prepare Black students and others to achieve at high levels of academic excellence and to be agents of their own socioeconomic and cultural transformation. These analyses and empirical findings also link the crisis in Black education to embedded ideological biases in research and the system of thought that often justifies the abject state of Black education.  Written for both a scholarly and a general audience  this book demonstrates a transformative role for research and a positive role for culture in learning  in the academy  and in community and cross-national contexts. Volume editor Joyce E. King is the Benjamin E. Mays Endowed Chair of Urban Teaching  Learning and Leadership at Georgia State University and was chair of CORIBE.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67966277156917,"sku":"ByrdShop_0805854584","price":26.02,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780805854589.jpg?v=1794551932","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/black-education-9780805854589","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
