From Black Power to Black Studies: How a Radical Social Movement Became an Academic Discipline
This academic work, From Black Power to Black Studies, examines the emergence and development of Black Studies programs in American higher education. It analyzes the role of student activism, particularly the Black Power movement, in pressuring universities to establish these programs. The text investigates the institutional factors and challenges that shaped the growth and survival of Black Studies, including interactions with university administrations, funding from organizations like the Ford Foundation, and the evolving academic legitimacy of the field. Ultimately, the book explores how Black Studies navigated the academic landscape, transitioning from a radical demand to a recognized, albeit sometimes contested, area of scholarly inquiry.
