Written to provide strategies for the collective development of Black people, Hilliard's fifteen essays address issues essential for socialization, self-determination, and cultural identity. Within the context of "community socialization," Hilliard examines the economic, educational, spiritual, and political aspects of the African American reality. Hilliard's insight is fresh and ripe with solutions to many of the problems that affect Black people in America.
