Product Description

The The Runaway Train: A Metaphor of the Plight of African American Children is a tool used to generate candid dialogues on the many obstacles that plague African American children. This book doesn't have the solution, but it will challenge the way you think and view certain issues. To develop solutions, one must be able to face and articulate the root cause of the issues. Oftentimes, it is very difficult for individuals to discuss this extremely important matter. Therefore, this book is designed for students, parents, educators, community activists, and anybody from all walks of life, race, and ethnicity that have a desire to be a part of the solution and keep "the train on track."
