mr woodson does a superlative job of disabusing the less and more privileged elements of society of false notions about reality. mr woodson makes it very clear that proper education is supreme to miseducation which is actually worse than no formal education at all. miseducation gets its venom from the fact that it masquerades as a tool of improvement in theory while mentally and physically incarcerating unenlightened agents of society in reality. the 'highly educated' negros who are assigned the responsibility of being the saviors of the race are actually racial sycophants who hide behind their credentials, cowardice, and comfort. they are paralyzed as they analyze their current situation and where their next meal will or won't come from if they stand for justice instead of resting on their worthless laurels. such apprehension will ultimately result in the stagnation of a people. woodson contends that the only way to transcend circumstance is through cultivating a generation of thinkers. those who are willing to confront the past, learn the truth of negro history, find true champions of our race(regardless of color) to become our teachers, and stand courageously in the face of tribulation deserve to be our leaders. our moses will not come from without as he did for the israelites, but from within, through scientific study of our race, proper education, and introspection.
