    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 054 036 SO 001 726 AUTHOR Moskowitz, Jack W. TITLE The New Mood of Black America. INSTITUTION Minneapolis Public Schools, Minn. PUB DATE 69 NOTE 121p. EDRS PRICE EDRS Price MF-$0.65 HC-$6.58 DESCRIPTORS *Activism, *African American Studies, *Black Community, *Black Power, *Current Events, Economic Factors, Ethnic Studies, Grade 9, Human Relations, Negro Culture, Negro History, Political Power, Race Relations, Secondary Grades, Social Studies Units, Supplementary Reading Materials ABSTRACT This is a collection of articles, excerpts, poems, essays, and short stories dealing with the increasingly militant and aggressive posture now being assumed by certain segments of the Black community. It attempts to reflect, for the teacher and student, the direction in which great masses of Black Americans are currently moving. The initial chapter, Some Historical Considerations, attempts to compare the Black Revolution today with certain aspects of the American Revolution. Chapter two, Black Power, discusses various interpretations of this concept. Chapters three and four are concerned with the economic and political implications of Black Power. Chapter five, Brothers, discusses the legacy of Malcolm X and closes with statements concerning other alternatives open to Black America. Expression, chapter six, contains several poems and a discussion of the national controversy over the proper name for Americans of African descent, Negro vs. Afro-American vs. Black. The collection is designed to clarify the specific teaching episode prepared for grade 9 during the 1968-69 school year by the Task Force and will serve as a beginning in contemporary race relations.
