This study is a historical and cultural examination of the political and ideological tenets used in the 19th and 20th centuries to defeat the broader educational purposes of the "architects of black education."

Every year, we are producing scholarship, but the scholarship is producing nothing for the people. It is because we have been deprived of the knowledge of ourselves."
