Aims and scope
The African American Male Series: Guiding the Next Generation Through Mentoring, Teaching, and Counseling examines the educational, social, and professional experiences of African American males across the educational pipeline and beyond. The series brings together scholars, practitioners, and community leaders to explore innovative approaches that foster the academic success, leadership development, and holistic well-being of Black men and boys.
Books in this series highlight evidence-based practices, policy implications, and transformative models of mentorship, teaching, counseling, and leadership development. Attention is given to the intersection of race, identity, access, equity, and opportunity as they shape the lived experiences of African American males in K through 12 education, higher education, and community-based settings.
The series welcomes single authored and edited volumes that explore topics such as mentoring initiatives, culturally responsive teaching, college access and persistence, community engagement, leadership development, mental health and counseling, and career advancement. Contributions may include empirical research, theoretical analyses, practitioner focused frameworks, and interdisciplinary perspectives.
By elevating both scholarship and practice, the series seeks to advance meaningful dialogue and provide actionable strategies that empower educators, counselors, administrators, policymakers, and community leaders to better support African American males in achieving their full potential.
