Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume brings together leading scholars and practitioners to address the theory and practice of African-centered education. The contributors provide (1) perspectives on the history, methods, successes and challenges of African-centered education, (2) discussions of the efforts that are being made to counter the miseducation of Black children, and (3) prescriptions for—and analyses of—the way forward for Black children and Black communities. The authors argue that Black children need an education that moves them toward leading and taking agency within their own communities. They address several areas that capture the essence of what African-centered education is, how it works, and why it is a critical imperative at this moment. Those areas include historical analyses of African-centered education; parental perspectives; strategies for working with Black children; African-centered culture, science and STEM; culturally responsive curriculum and instruction; and culturally responsive resources for teachers and school leaders.

Book excerpt: ""Too Much Schooling with its educational focus, fits into the Afrocentric school of thought with its aim to develop subject-centered analysis and solutions for African children. This book is an attempt to illustrate and demonstrate some of the ways we can use our cultural base to educate children." -- Molefi K. Asante, Author of Africa World Press titles: Afrocentricity; Kemet, Afrocentricity, and Knowledge; The Book of African Names; Thunder and Silence; African Culture. "It is our responsibility as African-American parents, educators and citizens to develop educational settings - formal and informal - where cultural understandings (political, historical, literary, technological, financial, health, law, etc.) are not transmitted accidentally, but by design. Too Much Schooling, Too Little Education is an over-needed addition to the ongoing search for meaningful African-centered education. Dr. Shujaa has edited a collection that is not only a first in this field, he has also assembled in one volume some of the best thinkers and practitioners working today. This book is more than impressive, it is required reading." -- Haki R. Madhubuti, Publisher of Third World Press."--taken from back cover.
