In the late 1960's and early 1970's, Black students organized hundreds of protests that sparked a period of crackdown, negotiation, and reform that profoundly transformed college life. At stake was the very mission of higher education. Black students demanded that public universities serve their communities; that private universities rethink the mission of elite education; and that black colleges embrace self-determination and resist the threat of integration. Most crucially, black students demanded a role in the definition of scholarly knowledge. Martha Biondi masterfully combines impressive research with a wealth of interviews from participants to tell the story of how students turned the slogan "black power" into a social movement. Vividly demonstrating the critical linkage between the student movement and changes in university culture, Biondi illustrates how victories in establishing Black Studies ultimately produced important intellectual innovations that have had a lasting impact on academic research and university curricula over the past 40 years. This book makes a major contribution to the current debate on Ethnic Studies, access to higher education, and opportunity for all. 606 $aAfrican American college students$xPolitical activity$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aAfrican American student movements 606 $aAfrican Americans$xEducation (Higher)$xHistory 610 $a20th century history. 610 $aafrican american studies. 610 $aamerican history. 610 $ablack education. 610 $ablack oppression. 610 $abooks for history lovers. 610 $acivil rights protests. 610 $acivil rights. 610 $acollege education. 610 $acoming of age. 610 $adiscrimination in schools. 610 $aeasy to read. 610 $aeducation history. 610 $aeducational books. 610 $aengaging. 610 $aevolution of education. 610 $ahistory of race and ethnicity. 610 $ainformative books. 610 $aleisure reads. 610 $amalcolm x. 610 $amartin luther king. 610 $apage turner. 610 $aracial segregation. 610 $asocial history. 610 $asocial movement. 610 $astudents and teachers. 610 $aunited states history. 615 0$aAfrican American college students$xPolitical activity$xHistory 615 0$aAfrican American student movements. 615 0$aAfrican Americans$xEducation (Higher)$xHistory. 676 $a378.1/982996073 700 $aBiondi$b Martha$0792384 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910790232303321 996 $aBlack revolution on campus$91771811 997 $aUNINA
