76 King Street, Journal of Liberty Hall: The Legacy of Marcus Garvey

PEDAGOGIES OF/FOR BLACK EDUCATION

Controlling Black education has always been a means of constraining Black agency and disrupting the continuity of Black culture. As a consequence, Black
education has always been omitted from conventional discussions on education. Afrocentric scholars and educators have proposed that people of African descent
should be educated from Pan-Africanist and Black Nationalist perspectives to combat the Black identity crisis. This re-Africanization, as Stockley and Cleveland
(2011) coined it, will challenge the notion that African history began with slavery. It will also provide avenues for exploring Black experiences and bringing Black
(African) history to the forefront.

You are invited to submit a paper for possible inclusion in Volume 4 of 76 King Street, the Journal of Liberty Hall. This Issue aims to provide a platform for
scholars, independent researchers and writers from Africa and the African Diaspora, both inside and outside of academia, to provide insightful dialogue on the
theme of “Pedagogies of/for Black Education”. Possible areas of interest for this issue include but are not limited to:
(1) Engaging Black children through the Arts
(2) Educating Black children in Black majority and Black minority spaces
(3) Developing a Garvey centred education curriculum in the Caribbean

In addition to our thematic focus, we welcome articles, biographical notes on Garveyites, book reviews, book excerpts, and poetry related to the study of Garvey’s
life, work and philosophy; Pan-Africanism; and the history, culture and current affairs of Africa and the Diaspora. Submissions must include an abstract and 100-
word biographic NOTE. Queries and submissions should be made electronically to 76kingstreet@gmail.com by February 27, 2018. All submissions are peer-
reviewed.

76 King Street is a Journal of the Friends of Liberty Hall (Marcus Garvey) Foundation and is published biennially. Volume 4 will be launched August 2019.
