Contemporary Challenges to Black Studies.

Cruse, Harold

Black Scholar, v15 n3 p41-47 May-Jun 1984

Reviews Maulana Karenga's "Introduction to Black Studies" (1982). Discusses the academic and social relevance of the discipline and its growth out of economic, political, and historical forces. Concurs with Karenga's Afrocentric approach but notes the difficulties in its implementation within the current academic climate. (GC)
