African American Religious Beliefs On Death And Dying
[ send me this paper ]
This 10 page paper discusses religious beliefs and cultural customs regarding death and dying among the African American population. First, it would be wrong to lump all African Americans together and assume they all share the same religious and cultural beliefs and use the same procedures when it comes to death and dying.

This essay reports the comments and discussions of a number of persons who belong to this racial community and/or who have studied the topics. There are some core beliefs that may be practiced by many of the black population, such as spirituality, the circle of life and the collective decision making process. These are explained and discussed. Bibliography lists 7 sources.

African Americans' College Enrollment
[ send me this paper ]
An 8 page research proposal seeking to determine why more African American students do not seek college admission. Black and white Americans enjoyed momentary equality in terms of enrollment in colleges and universities in 1976. That equality was short lived as disparities grew until 1982, when the racial gap between African American and white students grew to 10 percent. All college enrollment has increased in recent years; African American students have made the greatest gains among minority students. By 2003, the racial gap had declined to less than 8 percent and 54.8 percent of all African American students completing high school entered college during their first year after high school. There is some evidence that the state of the national economy may be a predictor of African American college enrollment, but there is also evidence that African American students are discouraged from attending college in the form of negative messages regarding likelihood of success. Bibliography lists 5 sources. Includes an abstract.

African Ideology and Culture: Past and Continued Impacts on African Americans
[ send me this paper ]
A 6 page discussion of the continued importance of Africa culture and ideology to African Americans. To these people Africa was, and will continue to be a continual theme in their culture and even their perceptions of themselves. It was the underlying commonality of their Africanness which pulled African Americans one of the most turbulent times of their history, the time of slavery. It is this same underlying theme of Africanness which continues to consolidate the African Americans and which allows them to resist total assimilation into white culture. Some suggests that the creation of Africa-centered schools would be a positive factor in the welfare of contemporary Black Americans. While the ideology and culture of Africa is something which should continue to be stressed into our future, however, the segregation of black from white in the form of Africa-centered schools would only be a regress into our past.
