This book examines how black children who grow up in an
impoverished environment construct their social reality, and why
this process is a particulary critical factor in their perception
and creation of self. It argues that black disadvantaged children
develop a lifestyle and adopt values based on an identity grounded
in racism, inequality, violence and poverty. "Constructing Social
Relaity: Self Portraits of poor Black Adolescents" makes a valuable
contribution to the scholarship by investigating the phenomena of
poverty from cognitive, linguistic, and experiential persepctives
in the lives of disadvantaged black adolescents.
