ABSTRACT Racial minority families engage in “racial socialization,” the process by which individuals develop meaning and understanding of what race is, and its implications. While parents are often seen as the site of this socialization, we wanted to explore which racial socialization messages were salient for young adults, and from whom they received these messages. This paper utilized focus groups to explore messages that young Black adults received about race, and what this means for their racial identity. We identified three dominant themes in our analyses: (a) the content of familial messages regarding race, identity, and prejudice, (b) critical incidents that shaped individuals’ understandings of Black racial identity, and (c) familial sources. Each of these themes is constituted by various experiences and examples that shed light on racial socialization in today’s social climate. Overall, parents, extended family members, and community members were sources of socializing what race meant to young Black adults. We discuss implications for research on racial socialization and family communication.

美国黑人家庭的家庭交流和种族与身份信息

摘要种族少数族裔家庭参与“种族社会化”,即个人对什么是种族及其含义产生理解和理解的过程。尽管父母通常被视为这种社交活动的场所,但我们想探索哪些种族社交信息对年轻人很重要,以及他们从谁那里收到这些信息。本文利用焦点小组来探索年轻的黑人成年人收到的有关种族的信息,以及这对他们的种族身份意味着什么。我们在分析中确定了三个主要主题:(a)有关种族,身份和偏见的家族信息的内容,(b)塑造个人对黑人种族认同的理解的重大事件,以及(c)家族来源。每个主题都由各种经验和示例构成,这些经验和示例阐明了当今社会气候中的种族社会化。总体而言,父母,大家庭成员和社区成员是种族对黑人青年意味着什么的社会化来源。我们讨论了种族社会化和家庭沟通研究的意义。
