"While this book was not a page-turner for me and took a lot of concentration and re-reading, I feel it is a must-read for all educators. There are so many gems of wisdom that I know I will keep in mind for the rest of my career. I will have to re-read and reflect on my practice with Woodson's philosophies always. Written in the 1930's, this book is so relevant today."
"Written in the early 20th century, but still very much so pertinent in modern day America. Woodson provides a logical view of the plan to keep people of poverty living under these sub-par conditions. He also provides a perspective that can help eliminate the problems faced by people of color then and now. This is a must-read for people of color and those who live under questionable socioeconomic conditions."
"Written in 1933, Woodson's thinking jumps out with a clarity and timelessness that belies its publication date. He lays out clearly the forces and ideologies that keep many African Americans from receiving a truly transformative education. He argues that any educational program that does not support an individual's independent critical thinking and lead that person to work for the entire community's advancement as miseducation. Going to Harvard, working for Google isn't enough. We don't need anymore 'traducers!' He also provides a clear critique of forces both within and from without the Af. Am. community that derail true education and community power."
