The Weakest Link: A Commentary on the Connections Between K-12 and Higher Education
Colleges and universities could be seen as being at the apex of a steep educational pyramid. Prospective entrants to the academy make their way up the pyramid by way of their experiences in elementary and secondary schools. Young people with financial means and social capital are likely to make it to the top of the pyramid with little difficulty. However, students of color, especially boys, are more likely to drop out, opt out, or be pushed out o…
The Impact of the Brown v. Board of Education Decision on Postsecondary Participation of African Americans
Although specifically directed toward the nation's K-12 Brown v. Board also opened wider the doors of postsecondary education for African Americans. The landmark decision has led to increased enrollment of African American students in predominantly White colleges and universities.

This article will analyze the education of Black children in mathematics,…

The Educational System and Black Mental Health
While educational systems manifest themselves in such a way as to clearly and distinctly reinforce the direction of a given culture, cultural forces, in turn, exert an influence over the orientation and approach of the educational system and the resultant psychological and emotional well-being of those persons who are acculturated through its structures. In America, racism is an entrenched part of the normative culture,1 and as a consequence, it …
The Independence of Transkei - a Largely Constitutional Inquiry
TheSouth African commitment to racial separation is well-known. The deep historic roots ofapartheid, the religious fervour with which it is justified by its proponents, and the rapidly growing weight of criticism by which it is condemned throughout the world have served to make it a familiar ideology and policy. Less well-known is the extent to which separation in a relatively superficial, transient context - in stores, theatres, parks, some hote…
