Dr. Jawanza Kunjufu

Author, Educator, Entrepreneur

Dr. Jawanza Kunjufu dedicated his career to addressing the ills afflicting black culture in the United States, working as an educational consultant and author.

All aspects of the African American experience occupied Kunjufu's attention, but the main thrust of his work had been directed toward improving the education and socialization of black youths.

Author of over 40 books including several national bestsellers, Kunjufu was a guest speaker at most universities throughout the U. S. and was a consultant to most urban school districts.

In 1980, Kunjufu Founded African American Images, a publishing company that published his books and sponsored thousands of his workshops intended to help educators and parents develop practical solutions to the problems of child-rearing in what he perceived to be a racist society.
