      abstract = {This book centralizes the importance of using culturally  relevant models within health promoting schools (HPS) to  promote the participation of Black students. In current HPS  models Black students are often overlooked. The author  presses beyond the mainstream, science-focused research on  HPS to grapple with issues of power, prejudice, and  oppression and focus on the social determinants of health.  By focusing on social constructs as a constraint to Black  students' wellbeing (rather than only disease), chapters  present a multidimensional whole-school intervention aimed  at comprehensively bridging the empowerment gap between  Black students and historically privileged students.  Lawrence Nyika recently completed his PhD in Educational  Studies at St. Francis Xavier University, Nova Scotia.  Currently, Lawrence is a part-time lecturer with the  Institute for Capacity Development at Great Zimbabwe  University. His research interests include health promoting  schools, social determinants of health, and Black  education.},
