E31: "The Black Kids" by Christina Hammonds Reed (Emmy B w/ Cayla Turner)

In this episode, we invite special guest and author of The Black Kids, Christina Hammonds Reed, to talk about her book, her experience growing up as a privileged black kid, and finding her place in her community as a minority.

So much more is uncovered in this episode, so tune in now and join in on the conversation!    KEY POINTS / MAIN TAKEAWAYS:  About The Black Kids, the book.  Why talk about black privileged kids?  Raising black children with respectability politics.  The burden of representing your race.  What isolation can do to a black kid.  Figuring out where you fit in the white structure.  The pressures of being the “good kid”.     QUOTABLES: “Even now, just because you're not out in the streets with a sign protesting, it does not mean that one you're not passionate about it. And it does not mean that you're not impacted by it. You just may have a different way of managing and engaging.”  “We see a lot of coming of age stories about depressive white kids, but we don't really see what that depression can look like in black kids.”   PRODUCTS / RESOURCES MENTIONED: Get your copy of The Black Kids by Christina Hammonds Reed here: www.simonandschuster.com/books/The-Black-Kids/Christina-Hammonds-Reed/9781534462724 Follow Christina on Instagram: instagram.com/christinahammondsreed   Like what you’re hearing?
