Black girls living in predominantly White environments face unique challenges on the road to adulthood. In Finding Her Voice, three racial justice experts and advocates offer Black teen girls important self-empowerment skills, and provide activities and exercises to help teen readers challenge dominant culture, cultivate self-compassion, and build resilience in a world filled with microaggressions and discrimination.
Racial trauma can reverberate for generations, and lead to anxiety, irritability, anger, rage, depression, low self-esteem, shame, and guilt. Teens are especially vulnerable to racial trauma, as they are still developing a sense of self and identity. The Racial Trauma Handbook for Teens provides readers with evidence-based cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) skills to heal the wounds of personal and intergenerational trauma, increase self-awareness, and build confidence.
