America's MIA (Missing in Algebra I) is intended to serve the needs of African American students in public schools in America. It is organized for parents and community supporters to use as an outline to improve the learning of mathematics by African American students in public schools and the community. The fundamental concepts and theory concerning the writing of this book are significant to education of all students with the main focus on the African American students during the initial stages. The organization plan and framework of Dr. Johnson's book is intended to share his teaching of basic mathematics to African American students, successfully. The first several chapters will give the framework of the basic organization of the learning community and ways to organize the learning environment. His suggestions are introduced only to motivate the supporters of learning improvement for African American students in mathematics. The practices suggested reflect 47 years of his career in education beginning as a 4-year college student focused on learning to teach mathematics; a mathematics middle school classroom teacher for ten years; a high school counselor for two years; a middle school assistant principal for one year; a high school assistant principal for nine years; a high school principal for 14 years; a director of safe and secure schools for 11 years; a researcher in mathematics achievement of African American students for four years; and concluding with a dissertation on success of African American students on high-stakes tests in mathematics, leading to a PhD in educational leadership. America's MIA (Missing in Algebra I), written by Dr. Johnson is designed to awake the conscious of the African American parents; private and public school teachers, college instructors, and the workforce of our great nation. His book recommends that we change the way we teach and respect African American students and all ethnic groups. The average reader and community person will have the opportunity to read his book and participate in making the necessary changes to improve the teaching and learning of mathematics by all students especially, African Americans.
