The Mis-Education of the Negro

[Rose]

The Classic "Mis-Education of the Negro" is Coming to iTunes and Audible.com

-- Written by the founder of Black History Month, Dr. Carter G. Woodson's classic is now in audio book format and will be featured on iTunes and Audible in the coming weeks. --



St. Louis, MO - A deal was recently struck between St. Louis native Anthony Stewart (Narrator and Publisher) and Audible, LLC (audible.com) to distribute The Mis-Education of the Negro audio book via iTunes, audible.com and Amazon.com. The public domain classic was converted to audio form in late 2007 and is currently distributed from the website www.themiseducationofthenegro.com. Seeking greater marketing and distribution for the book, Mr. Stewart approached Audible, LLC and soon after a deal was struck.

A top 10 Best Seller (Essence Magazine 2008), The Mis-Education of the Negro was one of the first critical examinations of the cause of the unequal social status of Blacks in America. Written by a Black man with a PhD from Harvard, Dr. Woodson's book was accepted widely amongst Blacks and Whites in educated circles. But, it was not until the 60's when the book would receive greater exposure among the masses of Blacks engaged in the Civil Rights movement. Since then the book has remained a Top Ten seller internationally amongst Blacks.

Rose,

I read that book a while ago. Mr. Woodson was on the money. Black folks, including all Americans are mis educated.

I have not read it in a while. I may have to dust my copy off before the year is out and read it again, though I remember it quite well.

I know I always have a book to suggest. If you are like me, it is a hard to decide which book is the most important to read. However, I am going to make a suggestion anyway. Have you heard of the book "The Lies My Teacher Told Me: Everything Your American History Book Got Wrong by James Loewan?
