- Description:
- This study compares segregated education in the United States and Canada from 1896 to 1954. The study was based on the premise that blacks in the United States and Canada similarly received a substandard level of education stemming from a common experience. A case study analysis and a comparative approach were used to analyze data obtained from both the United States and Canada. This data included primary and secondary source material such as autobiographies, newspapers, government documents, historical journals, archival resources and other published and unpublished sources. The conclusions drawn from this study suggest that blacks in the United States and Canada had similar experiences under segregated education. Additionally, African-Americans and African-Canadians were instructed under education systems that reinforced the myths of white supremacy and black inferiority.
