Abstract
The fundamental assumptions and empirical evidence, upon which are based conventional views of the nature and meaning of black self-esteem, are examined. Review of the literature reveals that a number of these assumptions and conclusions have been drawn from rather weak empirical data. Results of recent investigations, suggesting alternative interpretations and conclusions regarding the level and quality of black self-esteem, are presented.Keywords
