Cultural idealism in various forms has become enormously influential as a framework for Black studies. In turn, Ferguson argues for the centrality of the Black working class—both men and women—to Black Studies.

“Stephen C. Ferguson II convincingly presents a fivefold argument, focusing his critique on Afrocentricity as articulated by Dr. Molefi Kete Asante … . Philosophy of African American Studies is essential and significant reading for persons deeply committed to overcoming the bourgeois specifications and ideological weaknesses Ferguson analyzes, and to moving the field forward.” (Charisse Burden-Stelly, Science & Society, Vol. 83 (1), 2019)
