Like many historians, she Dr. Dr. Dr Little believes "Black History" is a subject that can interest both black and non-black youth. Both groups can learn about "Blacks" contributions to the development of civilization and history and that neither race, religion, socio-economic status, nor family background hampers their ability to succeed. Black youth can learn about people, like themselves, who have made a difference in the quality of life for others.
