This book consists of a comprehensive analysis of Afrocentricity and (Afrocentric) African Centered Education and the value and viability of these paradigms as alternatives to the current Eurocentric educational system in the United States. It will seek to critically analyze the theoretical frameworks of Afrocentricity as pedagogy for children and youth. It will seek to answer the following questions: 1. Does Afrocentricity in children and youth shape their identity? 2. Does Afrocentricity in children and youth shape their academic achievement? 3. Does Afrocentricity in children and youth shape their development? With over 70% of African American children attending public schools, school-districts can no longer afford to authorize and implement curriculum and instruction that is not culturally relevant to their lives. #BlackKnowledgeSupreme
