| Abstract: | Historically, black male students in the United States have the lowest college degree completion rate. This chapter describes the work of The Black Male Initiative (BMI) at Empire State College in NYC. Grounded in an Afrocentric paradigm, BMI provides a safe space for students to share experiences. In this chapter, the author describes the components of BMI along with challenges and successes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
