Why read it?
1 author picked African American Childhoods as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I am very interested in the unique challenges that African American children face in the United States. The impacts and continuing effects of slavery and systemic racism begin affecting them before they can articulate the discrimination they experience. This book makes me question the root causes of prejudice and how it is instilled in and inflicted on children.
From Hoda's list on childhood and globalization.
