Focusing on the educational experiences of African-Americans, Dr. Carter G. Woodson argues that the schooling system of his time promotes cultural indoctrination rather than genuine education. He posits that this leads to dependency and a relegation to inferior societal roles. Woodson encourages readers to become self-taught and proactive in their learning, advocating for personal empowerment and a rejection of the limitations imposed by traditional education.
