The Mis-Education of The Negro (Original, Unabridged Edition 4 CD Set) info
This is the unprecedented Original, Unabridged Audio Edition of Carter G. Woodsons timeless classic now available for the first time in its entirety on this 4 CD Set. Originally released in 1933, The Mis-Education of the Negro continues to resonate today, raising questions that readers are still trying to answer. The impact of slavery on the Black psyche is explored and questions are raised about our education system, such as what and who African Americans are educated for, the difference between education and training, and which of these are African Americans receiving. As Mr. Woodson so eloquently states; When you control a mans thinking you do not have to worry about his actions. You do not have to tell him not to stand here or go yonder. He will find his proper place and will stay in it. You do not need to send him to the back door. He will go without being told. In fact, if there is no back door, he will cut one for his special benefit. His education makes it necessary.
