Do African American girls take up the civic mantle in the same way that their male or non-Black peers do? What media, educational, or social platforms do Black girls leverage to gain access to the political arena, and why? How do Black girls negotiate civic identity within the context of their racialized, gendered, and age specific identities? There are scholars doing powerful work on Black youth and civics; scholars focused on girls and civics; and scholars focused on Black girls in education. But the intersections of African American girlhood and civics have not received adequate attention. This book begins the journey of understanding and communicating the varied forms of civics in the Black Girl experience. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eBlack Girl Civics: Expanding and Navigating the Boundaries of Civic Engagement\u003c\/em\u003e brings together a range of works that grapple with the question of what it means for African American girls to engage in civic identity development and expression.
