      abstract = {Based on a critical reinterpretation of several key  educational frameworks, African-Centered Pedagogy is a  practical guide to accomplished teaching. Murrell suggests  integrating the historical, cultural, political, and  developmental considerations of the African American  experience into a unified system of instruction, bringing  to light those practices that already exist and linking  them to contemporary ideas and innovations that concern  effective practice in African American communities. This is  then applied through a case study analysis of a school  seeking to incorporate the unified theory and embrace  African-centered practice. Murrell argues that key  educational frameworks-although currently ineffective with  African American children-hold promise if reinterpreted.},
