From the publisher

An in-depth analysis of the contexts of Black youth socialization with emphasis on the intragroup variations in the circumstances, behavior, and experiences of those youth. Taylor and his contributors present a balanced portrait of the majority of Black youth who stay in school, avoid drugs and pregnancy, are employed, and are not involved in crime despite social and economic disadvantages, alongside those unfortunates who are enmeshed in the crucible of social problems. Authored by some of the best African-American researchers in the United States, this volume focuses on the multiple ecologies of Black youth development from school through employment and marriage.

First line

During the past two decades public concern for the well-being of children and youth in the United States increased dramatically in response to a litany of dismal statistics and grim appraisals of their status presented in government reports, journal articles, and a variety of other public documents (Winn 1983).
