Mentoring African American Males provides important black male research and student performance data toguide the efforts of those who accept the enormous task of standing in the gap to increase black male achievement.Dr. Ross provides guidance for individuals and institutions embracing the important role of developingmentoring programs or serving as a mentor to youth. However, what makes Dr. Ross’ work such a criticallyimportant book for any individual or institution considering such a role is its insight into the social-culturalframework within which mentoring must occur at every level from elementary school through college.Equally insightful is the structure that such programs must take in response to the socio-cultural constructs ofthe families, communities, and institutions where they will occur.There are far more quantitative studies than qualitative on the topic of mentoring. This text addresses that discrepancy and provides the results of severalqualitative studies on African American males. There is hardly any that offer a mixed method perspective that combine quantitative and qualitativemethodological approaches. This text reports on the research results that are qualitative in nature in addition to some that are from a quantitative andmixed method approach.
