Abstract 520    $aBorn out of extreme racism and shepherded through the centuries by enduring hope, the nation's historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs) have educated countless African Americans. These institutions, which boast great diversity, are treasures that illuminate the talent and potential of African Americans. [This volume] provides an overview of the salient issues facing HBCUs as well as the many contributions that these historic institutions make to our country as a whole -- From back cover.
