85. CAARMS DESCRIPTION
    The difficulty of doing this is compounded for many African American mathematicians by the fact that they are frequently isolated in their home environments

    Extractions: Dr.Raymond L. Johnson Department of Mathematics University of Maryland College Park, MD 20742-0001 rlj@math.umd.edu December, Notices of the American Mathematical Society, 1496-1500 Forty-one mathematicians interested in the development of mathematics among African Americans and other minorities gathered at MSRI in Berkeley on June 21-23, 1995 for a mathematics conference. They were joined by thirty-eight undergraduate and graduate students, whose perspective was sought on critical issues facing the profession. The Conference was funded by MSRI, and the Department of Energy. Since interest in mathematics was the common bond for participants, the bulk of the conference was devoted to talks in a variety of areas such as Differential Geometry, Dynamical Systems, Mathematical Biology, Astrophysics and Numerical Analysis. However, discussions on how to overcome the barriers to participation in mathematics by minorities played a central and vigorous role. One can ask the same questions about this conference that Lenore Blum asked in her description of the Women in Algebraic Geometry Workshop, (Notices, 40, #7, September 1993, 860-861) and give the same answers plus one. I paraphrase Lenore's question, "Clearly such a workshop would be a stimulating and worthwhile experience for any budding research mathematician; and so the question arises, why have a special program for (African Americans)? Is it because (African Americans) have to learn mathematics in a special way? To the contrary, it is to create an environment where (African Americans) have a chance to do and learn mathematics in a way that most successful (white) male mathematicians take for granted."
