NEXT ISSUE

 

Volume 2 • Number 4 • 2008

The next proposed issue of The Journal of Pan African Studies will explore: a paper that asks us to rethink strategy and implementation plans for sustainable and equitable political, economic and social development in Africa via an empirical qualitative and analytical assessment; a report on how Shona traditional children's games and play songs represent an indigenous way of knowing; how African American Studies scholars can offer an alternative perspective by augmenting poverty studies with urban poverty residents to identify sources of strength and resiliency in the African American community; and a paper that argues that the key to understanding how to close the academic achievement gap for African Americans and others rest in a focus on integrating cultural competence into the curriculum.
