"Historically Black Colleges and Universities in a Globalizing World is an impressive collection of interdisciplinary chapters that underscores the transformative agency and challenges of HBCUs in higher education, knowledge production, and dissemination, and as catalysts in the development of human capital and sociopolitical activism in the United States and across the globe. It is highly recommended." -- Gloria Chuku, University of Maryland, Baltimore County "Historically Black Colleges and Universities in a Globalizing World: The Past, the Present, and the Future, not only serves as an introduction to those who may not know much about Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), but also serves a reminder to others about their value, importance, and relevance, in the twenty-firstcentury and beyond. What is important to note about this book is that it offers an international perspective of HBCUs and the impact its attendees and graduates have on countries around the globe and in America. Moreover Historically Black Colleges and Universities in a Globalizing World: The Past, the Present, and the Future, offers insight on what HBCUs can do to ensure their survival, so they can continue to shape American society and the world." -- Saidat Ilo, University of Houston-Victoria "This book comes at a time when we are seeing the resurgence of interest in HBCUs, which calls for scholarship that explores their histories and significance, especially in African American communities. HBCUs have always been a hub of Black intellectual and social activity, and this text explores the legacies of several key HBCUs. One of the few texts to explore the connections between HBCUs and the African continent, this book also explores the role of HBCUs in the Civil Rights and social justice struggles in America." -- Msia Kibona Clark, Howard University
