Using the analytical lens of intersectionality, it demonstrates that the frameworks typically deployed in research on middle- class mothers and their families, which usually focus on the experiences of elite white mothers, do not adequately capture the experiences of African American middle-class and upper-middle-class mothers. Through sixty in-depth semistructured interviews with African American middle- class and upper-middle-class women, Mothering While Black distills the experiences of these contemporary mothers, revealing the cultural expectations and constraints that inform their approaches to parenting, work and family, and childcare. Through their accounts, this book demonstrates how race, class, and gender complicate their parenting concerns and strategies, and identifies three aspects of African American middle-class identity that study participants worked to foster in their children. Through this research, the book expands on and revises theories related to parenting, racial identity formation, and family and work conflict by complicating existing frameworks for understanding the cultural pushes and pulls that influence mothers' decision-making"--Provided by publisher. 650 0 African American mothers|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh99010436|xSocial conditions.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2001008850 650 0 Parenting|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85098009|xSocial aspects.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh00002758 650 0 Middle class African Americans|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2007001646|xFamily relationships. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005369 650 0 Intersectionality (Sociology)|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2017003056 650 7 African American mothers.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/799267 650 7 Social conditions.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1919811 650 7 Parenting|xSocial aspects.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1053437 650 7 Parenting.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1053407 650 7 Middle class African Americans.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1742999 650 7 Families.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1728849 650 7 Intersectionality (Sociology)|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1982537 650 7 Intersectionality.|2homoit|0https://homosaurus.org/v3/ homoit0000667 776 08 |iOnline version:|aDow, Dawn Marie, author.|tMothering while black|dOakland, California : University of California Press, [2019]|z9780520300323|w(DLC) 2018042495 901 MARCIVE 20231220 994 C0|bRID
