The collection is composed of several databases—video, essays, biographical sketches, and the original manuscript for the special issue of the International Journal of Africana Studies entitled Sustaining Black Studies in the 21st Century. The collection contains video of key contributors to the field of Black Studies previously not available to the general public.
Key participants are: Abdul Alkalimat, Molefi Kete Asante, Ronald W. Bailey, Lee D. Baker, Alison Bernstein, Carole Boyce Davies, the late Josephine Boyd Bradley, Monica Carrillo, Kimberle Crenshaw, Sylvia Cyrus, James de Jongh, Kevin Gaines, Edmund T. Gordon, Beverly Guy Sheftall, Charles P. Henry, Austin Jackson, Stanlie M. James, Charles E. Jones, the late Rhett S. Jones, Maulana Karenga, the late Terry Kershaw, Summer L. (Henry) Melay, the late Manning Marable, Claudia Mitchell-Kernan, Nathaniel Norment Jr., Daryl Michael Scott, James Stewart, Esther Terry, James Turner, Dorothy Randall Tsuruta, and Warren Whatley.
The collection is expected to complement the Pressbooks publication Sustaining Black Studies in the Twenty-First Century: The Digital Edition and this "under development" Scalar book, iBlack Studies: An Interdisciplinary Integrative Interactive Approach. This site is the first of several anticipated collections based on research on the Black experience. The Pressbooks version of Sustaining Black Studies in the Twenty-First Century is an e-book available in HTML, EPUB, and PDF versions. Note: the PDF version is only for print and does not include video.
