This groundbreaking book addresses a critical gap in business education by examining the influence of chattel slavery on modern management practices. It challenges conventional teaching methods and exposes how ignoring this history perpetuates systemic racism and white supremacy in business education. Through qualitative interviews with faculty nationwide, this book offers a fresh perspective on how historical practices of cruelty and coercion continue to shape today's management strategies.

Readers will gain a comprehensive understanding of the deep connections between chattel slavery and contemporary management practices. The book provides compelling arguments and evidence that highlight the need to integrate this historical context into business education. By adopting a symptomatic approach, as advocated by behavioral scientist Edgar J. Ridley, the book presents innovative ways to address symbolic behaviors that perpetuate racism and inequality in the workplace.

This book is essential for business educators, management students, and researchers interested in the intersection of history, race, and business practices. It is also valuable for professionals committed to creating more equitable and socially responsible business environments. By bridging historical insights with contemporary issues, this book equips readers with the knowledge and tools to challenge and transform traditional business education.
