  <default_description>&lt;div&gt;Originally released in 1933, &lt;i&gt;The Mis-Education of the Negro&lt;/i&gt; continues to resonate today, raising questions that readers are still trying to answer. The impact of slavery on the Black psyche is explored and questions are raised about our education system, such as what and who African Americans are educated for, the difference between education and training, and which of these African Americans are receiving. Woodson provides solutions to these challenges, but these require more study, discipline, and an Afrocentric worldview. This new edition contains a biographical profile of the author, a new introduction, and study questions.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[okay. this is one of the books that has been recommended to me on multiple occassions. It has some very important information and it should be on everyone's list as a must read simply for the valuable information in it. but as far as how it was written and it's ability to keep your attention.
