The Mis-Education of the Negro Paperback – 17 May 2020

What an amazing piece of literature. You are transported back in time as this narrative describes the present fate of the 'negro', the conditions in which he finds himself and how the social discourse and geo-political climate merely serve to further subjugate. The reader is immediately gripped by the almost polemical style of writing as Woodson caricatures the 'negro' in his discussion of mis - education. This caricature is necessary though to convey the way that the 'negro' is disenfranchised within the education system. Woodson manages it beautifully in this rhetorical masterpiece.It is striking that all the issues that Carter discusses are the issues of today. His writing comes across as patronising but this is not the intention. His message is clear. A must read for all those concerned with social justice. I could not put it down.

Well written from an excellent understanding of the American racial reality vis a vie the melanated male
