What should be the nature of the curriculum and instructional pedagogy for African American students has a long history of debate. Currently, Afrocentric curriculum/ pedagogy and multicultural curriculum/pedagogy are the main focus of the debate. This essay discusses the nature and purpose of both curricula and critiques their strengths and weaknesses. An argument is present as to which of these curricular concepts best suits the current needs of African American students. Finally, implications are listed for using both Afrocentric and multicultural curricula and pedagogies
