| When I was in college in the heady Black Power-African Liberation days of the late 1960s and early 1970s, we used to complain that black people just did not read—not about our history and culture; not our very true-to-life fiction; and certainly not about "the revolution" taking place at the time. "If you want to hide something from black people, put it in a book," we chorused. An unread people were an uninformed people, therefore fair game for "the oppressor." We weren't talking about college cognoscenti like ourselves, of course. |

| As president of Morehouse College, the nation's premier institution of higher learning for men, I am often asked why there is still a need for a college dedicated primarily to the education of black males. People who ask this question point to the fact that since the 1970s, an increasing number of African-Americans have gained admission, matriculated and graduated from Harvard, Yale, Duke and other respected majority institutions. |
