"The Journal of African American Males in Education (JAAME) is now accepting submissions. JAAME is a peer-reviewed journal devoted to advancing scholarship and influencing practice regarding African American males in education. JAAME is committed to the study of African American males throughout the educational pipeline (P-20), in various contexts (e.g., urban, suburban, rural), and in multiple capacities (e.g., students, parents, teachers, counselors, faculty, and administrators). JAAME publishes articles that: 1) Are grounded in research, theory and experiential knowledge; 2) promote critical examination of issues facing African American males in education; and 3) provide concrete recommendations for policy and/or practice. JAAME is published online.

The Journal of African American Males in Education (JAAME) encourages scholarly submissions from researchers and practitioners that address the unique realities of African American males in education. Submissions must have clearly explicated recommendations for research, theory, and practice that can lead to the improving condition of African American male students, teachers, faculty, staff and administrators, and faculty in P-20 educational contexts. Manuscripts submissions to JAAME should illustrate clear evidence of a theoretical underpinning or conceptual framework. Submissions should be written in a manner that is comprehendible and useful to both researchers and practitioners of education in community and school settings.

JAAME publishes several types of scholarly articles: a) research studies, which exhibit rigorous standards of empirical investigation. This includes empirical studies which use mixed-methods, qualitative and quantitative in nature; b) literature reviews/conceptual analysis, whereby researchers synthesize their research to illustrate gaps in current scholarly works on a given subject area, or which present a cogent and new perspective on current theory and research in a given area. This includes studies such as integrative reviews, literature meta-syntheses, meta-analyses and general literature reviews; and c) book reviews, which critically synthesize and/or analyze recent scholarly or practitioner oriented books on a given subject area. Authors interested in conducting a book review for submission to JAAME are advised to email editors in advance.
