Reviews
A masterfully detailed chronicle of the enduring impact of historic and contemporary factors on the development of the African American Family. A thorough, comprehensive, and resourceful volume that dis-spells misconceptions about the Black Family. An excellent inclusion of African-centered perspectives and issues that contribute to the health and strength of the Black Family. User friendly text for undergraduate and graduate courses in Psychology, Sociology, and Africana Studies." -Dr. Saundra Collins, Professor of Psychology, Montclair State University "African American Families offers a thorough investigation of structure, identities, social problems, and unique socialization processes that may impact the development of black families. Power structures shaped during slavery, movements and via institutional policies, inherited values, and opportunity structure are infused throughout the text. Research, theory, and practice are approached using race appropriate terminology and centered cultural narratives of resilience. The authors present a perfect blend of history, sociology, and psychology, and apply micro, mezzo, and macro level theoretical analyses and methodologies in a way that is precedented for the study of African American families. The social psychological and socio-cultural implications introduced about parenting are key for exploring the treatment of young black children in society. Further, several spatial contexts including urban, city, and metro locations are detailed in ways that are critical for surveying racial identity. Those presented in the text allow readers to understand varied distinctions between social and cognitive development of African American family members." -Dr. Chiquita Howard-Bostic, Associate Vice President of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusivity; Chair of the Department of Sociology, Criminology, and Criminal Justice; Associate Professor of Sociology "During a time when American society finally recognizes that 'Black Lives Matter,' African American Families: Research, Theory, and Practice provides insight on the role that Black families play in shaping Black lives. Belgrave, Clark Goings, and Jones offer a cogent historical and empirically driven perspective of African American families, their experiences, and their resilience in the face of adversity. Highlighted is the heterogeneity of African American families and the cultural, societal, and contextual factors shaping them. The book uses a strength-based view to emphasize how African American families often 'make a way out of no way' to survive and thrive. With its learning objectives, 'Did you Know?' features, and discussion questions in each chapter, the book is ideal for anyone interested in learning more about African American families and the contributions they make to society in general and Black lives in particular. African American Families: Research, Theory, and Practice concretizes the importance of African Americans, and through a comprehensive review, confirms that 'African American families matter.'" -Jocelyn Turner-Musa, Ph.D., Professor and Chairperson, Morgan State University, Department of Psychology

- c***t (921)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThe book I bought was reasonably priced and when it arrived it was in the 'Like New' condition specified in the listing. However, when I saw that the seller had not shipped the book after more than 15 days had passed since my order I felt I must write to say that I had actually placed an order with the seller and inquire when it planned to send the book. The brusque reply was that a tracking number was available, but no number HAD been created until I pointed out that I had placed the order.Catland by Hughes, Kathryn, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US (#356798982438)
