Challenging the “Mis-education” of African Americans

Andrew Baskin: Inspiring students to live to their fullest potential — 

Since its publication in 1933, The Mis-Education of the Negro by Dr. Carter G. Woodson has influenced generations of African American educators, including Ramona’s guest Professor Andrew Baskin. Listen to Ramona's conversation with Professor Baskin as he discusses his work as a college educator and how he has encouraged and compelled students to achieve academic success. Mr. Baskin is Professor Emeritus of African and African American Studies at his alma mater Berea College, in Berea, KY. Having taught at the college for thirty-six years, Professor Baskin is the only faculty member to receive Berea College’s three most prestigious faculty awards for community service, academic advising, and excellence in teaching.
