New book hopes to serve as a resource guide to Black families navigating the college admission process

It could take years to better understand the unraveling impact of the U.S. Supreme Court’s recent decision to end race-conscious admissions.

On the heels of the high court’s decision is the book’s release, the second edition of “The Black Family’s Guide to College Admissions: A Conversation about Education, Parenting, and Race.”

Despite race no longer being a factor in college admissions, authors of the book, Timothy Fields, a senior associate dean of admissions at Emory University, and Shereem Herndon-Brown, suggest that Black students should still consider predominantly white and historically Black colleges and universities as educational options.
