By challenging traditional disciplines, black studies reveals not only the political role of American universities but also the political aspects of the disciplines that constitute their core. While black studies is post-modern in its deconstruction of positivism and universalism, it does not support a radical rejection of all attempts to determine truth. Evolving from a form of black cultural nationalism, it challenges the perceived white cultural nationalist norm and has become a critical multiculturalism that is more global and less gendered. Henry argues for the inclusion of black studies beyond the curriculum of colleges and universities. 606 $aEducation, Higher$zUnited States 606 $aAfrican Americans$xStudy and teaching 606 $aAfrican American college students$xPolitical activity 606 $aAfrican American college teachers 606 $aBlack people$xStudy and teaching 606 $aAfrican Americans$xEducation (Higher) 606 $aAfrican Americanx$xEducation 615 0$aEducation, Higher 615 0$aAfrican Americans$xStudy and teaching. 615 0$aAfrican American college students$xPolitical activity. 615 0$aAfrican American college teachers. 615 0$aBlack people$xStudy and teaching. 615 0$aAfrican Americans$xEducation (Higher) 615 0$aAfrican Americanx$xEducation. 676 $a378 700 $aHenry$b Charles P$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01062252 801 0$bMiFhGG 801 1$bMiFhGG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910155295003321 996 $aBlack Studies and the Democratization of American Higher Education$92523902 997 $aUNINA
