Description

The first exploration of the history of African American Studies, which found its greatest support in white philanthropic money. Rooks shatters the myth of African American Studies as a development of black protest and Black Power and confronts the field’s true history—many African American programs were directly funded by the Ford Foundation, a white philanthropic institution.
