Very good sentences

My contention is that the growth of black studies programs can be fruitfully viewed as a bureaucratic response to a social movement.

That is from Fabio Rojas's new and noteworthy From Black Power to Black Studies: How a Radical Social Movement Became an Academic Discipline.  Here is Bryan Caplan's review of the book.

I haven't read the book. Does Rojas view the field currently as an extension of the social movement, or independent and possessing a sort of life of its own?

Thanks for the plug, Tyler!!

To TGGP: Both. I break down the story into sections on social movement growth and how black studies broke from the movement so it could become integrated with the university system.
