Anderson and Moss present significant reinterpretations of key figures in African American education, including Booker T. Washington, William H. Baldwin, Jr., George Foster Peabody, and Thomas Jesse Jones."--BOOK JACKET. "Dangerous Donations explores both the great influence of the philanthropic foundations and the important limitations on their power."--BOOK JACKET.
