In a moment when the erasure of contributions and memory of people of African descent living in the U.S. seems more real and tragic, books like this one inspire future generations to realize and accept the possibilities for liberation and freedom. Building on foundational ideas from W. E. B. DuBois and Marcus and Amy Garvey to Asa Hilliard, from Anna Julia Cooper and Carter G. Woodson to Mwalimu Shujaa and William Watkins, the book is most promising for its intent to do more than just record the fight to maintain educational institutions that sustain Black educational thought, but ultimately to determine their own educational histories and futures.
