‘The Mis-Education of the Negro’ by Carter Godwin Woodson (1933), addresses important economic and social issues that were face by African-Americans. Woodson criticises education in American schools, and the emphasis on the history of the Greeks, Romans and British. He explores the legacy of slavery and the economic situation of blacks in the time of depression. In each chapter he considers the results of mis-education on the church, business, politics and leadership. The book opens with an analysis of the process of miseducation and in each successive chapter, he demonstrates the results of mis-education on the people’s livelihood, on spiritual life, political and leadership.
