The Austin School Manifesto: An Approach to the Black or African Diaspora
Scholarship on Black Men: A Conceptual Review
An overview of the scholarship on Black men and boys reveals a complex evolution of conceptual frameworks addressing their social, cultural, and economic experiences within the United States.

The Austin School Manifesto: An Approach to the Black or African Diaspora
Rights, Resources, and the Social Memory of Struggle: Reflections and Black Community Land Rights on Nicaragua's Atlantic Coast
In early 1997, the three authors accepted a research contract, funded by the World Bank, to carry out a diagnostico (research and analysis) of the communal land claims of some 130 indigenous, Garifuna, and Afro-Nicaraguan communities on the Atlantic (Caribbean) Coast of Nicaragua. This essay makes the diagnostico itself the subject of analysis, summarizing the research results and examining their impact. After a brief overview of the role of land…

Le sens commun politique creole est multiple et contradictoire : si dans un premier temps le populisme ethnique creole dominait, l'ideologie anglo l'emporta par la suite
Social Science Literature Concerning African American Men
Research literature focusing specifically on the plight of African American males is a phenomenon of the latter half of the 20th century. From mid-century until the mid-1970s, this literature tended to focus on dysfunctional males and their contributions to what were considered to be the problems of Black families, the legacies of slavery and their impact on Black males (e.g., the killing off of the most assertive and smartest males, the disrupti…
