Definition

  • Carter G. Woodson's Mis-Education of the Negro can be considered one of earliest rationales for the importance of Black Studies. Written in 1933, Woodson's book focuses on the Eurocentric education and indoctrination of African people, and how it was systematically detrimental and damaging.
