Africentric nature that promote self-esteem, collective
values, liberation, and skill development. Please check our publishing guidelines to find
out the type of books that we will and will not publish
DISTRIBUTION - You will find books that we have published in Culture Conscious and
mainstream bookstores nationwide from coast to coast! In addition, our published authors
now have the benefit of reaching a global market of potential readers through our website.
BOOKSTORE - We have one of the largest black-owned bookstores in the country, with over
10,000 square feet of space and over 4,000 titles. If it is Africentric material, any
topic, title, or author related to black studies, black economics, or anything relating to
the African or African American Experience you will probably find it here. You will find
your favorite authors such as Terry McMillan or Eric Jerome Dickey. We also carry a wide
variety of gifts and collectables such as art prints and figurines. We have regular
book-signings and workshops onsite at the bookstore in addition to the SETCLAE program
(see below). And for your convenience, we also offer secure, online shopping as well.
CURRICULUM - African American Images is the proud owner of SETCLAE, (Self-Esteem
Through Culture Leads to Academic Development), an Africentric multicultural
curriculum designed for today's youth. Dr. Jawanza Kunjufu also provides workshops for
parents, teachers and students (at your facility). Our program is a model curriculum that
provides a mechanism from which educators, and parents can teach their children the
positive aspects of their cultural heritage and simultaneously increase their self-esteem
and their desire to excel. If you are interested in establishing a right of passage
program please contact Dr. Kunjufu. We will be glad to offer assistance.
