Woodson inspired black Americans to demand relevant learning opportunities that were inclusive of their own culture and heritage. In issuing this challenge, Woodson laid the foundation for more progressive and egalitarian educational institutions.\u003cbr\u003eThe thoughts Woodson expressed in addresses and articles formed the basis for this work, described by \u003ci\u003eThe New York Times\u003c\/i\u003e as a challenging book that \"throws down the gauntlet to those who have had anything to do with Negro education, whether of white or black race.\"\u003cbr\u003eThe founder of the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History, Woodson was also the author of more than sixteen books and the founder and editor of the \u003ci\u003eJournal of Negro History\u003c\/i\u003e and the \u003ci\u003eNegro History Bulletin.\u003c\/i\u003e This landmark work remains essential reading for educators and everyone who seeks to understand the African-American experience.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Dover Publications\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/13\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780486445588\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 141\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.42lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.52h x 5.58w x 0.36d","brand":"Carter Godwin Woodson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36637808623772,"sku":"9780486445588","price":8.46,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_ff72a0bb-211c-49f5-b183-e4191ee931b5.jpg?v=1603845735","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/the-mis-education-of-the-negro-9780486445588","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
