Omschrijving
A relevant and practical book for the Nation’s Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU) leadership and administrators, HBCU faculty leaders and researchers that want to uncover the ways and means for cultivating success within the HBCUs longitudinally.
Timely is the best caption to summarize Reimagining HBCUs: Survival Beyond 2021. In a watershed moment in world history this volume captures the unique role of HBCU's beyond 2021. The contributors to this volume discuss a wide range of social issues which include the role of HBCU's amidst COVID-19 and racial injustice. Reimagining HBCUs: Survival Beyond 2021 is a must read for those concerned with social justice! It offers a unique perspective that juxtaposes the historical with the contemporary role of HBCU's in preparing leaders to address the most pressing challenges in the 21st century.
In this very timely work, Dr. Crosby and his colleagues encourage us to re-imagine HBCUs by incorporating a triad of perspectives - reflection, introspection, and projection – to provoke thought. The collective insights herein, if embraced, offer us viable considerations that will ensure that HBCUs remain as options for our children’s children.
Reimagining HBCUs: Survival Beyond 2021 is an exciting new volume that pushes the next generation of HBCU leaders and scholars to reconsider what is necessary to ensure the vitality of HBCUs in the future. HBCUs have a storied history of advancing educational outcomes for Black people in the face of great odds. However, the challenges in continuing to fulfill the HBCU mission has become increasingly difficult in recent years, given enrollment challenges, resource constraints, and racist political structures. To emerge successfully from the COVID-19 pandemic, HBCUs will need to reconsider practices in all areas. This volume can serve as the impetus for action and a guidebook for those who are committed to ensuring that HBCUs exist and thrive in the 2020's and beyond.
Historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs) in America have a long, remarkable history that celebrates their undeniable past contributions to the advancement of every field of human endeavor, like art, history, music, politics, and religion. The preponderance of published works, to date, acknowledge this timeless fact. Commendably, this new book builds upon that unshakeable foundation to make an important, fresh contribution to knowledge. The authors show through each chapter that the future of HBCUs can be even brighter than their illuminating past. Read and see.
