Sixty Years of Urban Education : A Content Analysis on Young Black Men and Boys in Urban Educational Contexts

Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: Covering six decades of scholarship and research in Urban Education (1965–2025), the systematic content analysis entailed a critical examination of the representation and thematic focus of published articles addressing Black male student experiences in urban educational contexts. A comprehensive search using key terms yielded 363 articles, which underwent rigorous screening methods to render a sample of 59 articles published between 1995 and 2024. The findings of the content analysis illustrated the increasing scholarly discourse on Black men and boys in urban education, characterized by increased attention in recent decades and contrasted with periods of limited scholarly coverage in this journal.
