About this ebook
American Blackness: Navigating the Myth of the Black Monolith focuses on a set of theoretical applications and social narratives that highlight the disparate racial, social, and political perspectives of modern Black Americans. Dr. Grenway uses the text to push back against ideals associated with the black monolith by examining the many ways in which black Americans struggle to cope with educational, cultural, and socio-economical expectations.
