The African-American Male : An Annotated Bibliography Hardback
by Jacob U. Gordon
Part of the Bibliographies and Indexes in Afro-American and African Studies series
Hardback
Description
The plight of the Black male in American society has been well-documented by scholars and practitioners.
Although Black males represent only 6 percent of the American population, they represent about 40 percent of the prison population; the number of Black males in prison and jail exceeds the number of Black males in higher education.
The homicide rates for Black males were 72.5 percent per 100,000, nearly eight times higher than for White males.
This bibliographic volume explores the extent to which American academia has addressed these problems.
It will be an invaluable resource for researchers as well as practitioners in social service programs. In addition to more than 400 annotated publications, the book includes a selected list of works on the African American male and a compilation of doctoral dissertations.
This publication will serve as a reference in public as well as academic libraries, human service agencies, government policymaking agencies, and in academic courses in gender and ethnic studies, criminal justice, and social psychology.
