The authors describe how the effective use of groups can promote academic achievement for adolescent African American males. Literature regarding adolescents’ and African Americans’ experience with groups is reviewed. The authors provide information on academic disidentification and achievement gaps, both critical to understanding the problem of academic achievement for this population. Finally, specific group interventions employed by Gentlemen on the Move (GOTM) (Bailey, 2001; Bailey, 2005; Bailey & Paisley, 2004), a group founded and directed by the authors and dedicated to developing and nurturing academic and social excellence in African American males, is discussed.
