David A. Varel. The Lost Black Scholar
In The Lost Black Scholar: Resurrecting Allison Davis in American Social Thought, author David A. Varel insists that Allison Davis, a black intellectual working primarily in the interwar years, has not received the recognition that he warrants. Scholars like W. E. B.

Afro-American scholars recruited by historically white universities during the past two decades faced a number of complex issues about their role and function within the institutions. In addition to expectations concerning research and teaching, various institutional interests sought to appropriate the energies of new arrivals. The conflicting role expectations often influenced the work and position of Afro-American intellectuals in academe
Models of Culture and School Counselors
During the 1960s many blacks criticized the counseling profession for an alleged insensitivity to cultural differences among client groups. Responding to this criticism the profession initiated various programs designed to familiarize counselors with Afro-American culture. However, most persons in the field conceived of Afro-American culture as if it were a homogeneous and static entity. The article suggests serious limitations to this conceptual…
Psychohistory and the Black Psychologist
The changing attitudes of black students
The racial attitudes of black college students were examined to determine changes in the acceptance or rejection of negative racial stereotypes.

Students sampled in 1968 were significantly less authoritarian than the earlier group. The trend is explored in the context of the changing…
