Understanding Teenage Girls: Culture, Identity and Schooling
focuses on a range of social phenomenon that impact the lives of
adolescent females of color. The authors highlight the daily
challenges that African-American, Chicana, and Puerto Rican teenage
girls face with respect to peer and family influences, media
stereotyping, body image, community violence, pregnancy, and
education. The authors also emphasize the incredible resiliency
that young women possess in countering many of the social barriers
confronting them. This work attempts to communicate the often
hushed voices of girls of color, for the purpose of understanding
their views on life experiences and how they negotiate social and
cultural mores. In company with their perspectives are the authors'
analyses guided by their years of teaching and mentoring
experiences, as well as contemporary research literature from the
fields of education, counseling, psychology, nursing, and
anthropology. Practical strategies are also offered for those
professionals assisting adolescent girls of color in and outside of
schools.
