When you have a positive self-awareness knowing who you are and, what you identify as in a cultural standpoint, you can connect with multiple generations. I don't believe anybody that have a negative view of self-sense can possibly have a positive view of ethnic identity. Why because first, you have to love who you are as a person and, you have to know who are as a person. To understand your ethnic identity so, that you can help someone else to better understand there's. You don't what to give out false advance because, you're leading with negative emotions.

1. My race identity stage is Internalization.

2. I believe that in in that stage because, I know who I am as a black African Amercian woman. I'm also good at adapting and getting to know other race outside of my race in building a real connection.

3. I know that I pass Pre-Encounter stage because, I have my own believes and values and I don't jump into other believes to build connections.

1. What type of racism from slide 2 have you seen in this world? I've seen Cultural Racism. What examples, from slide 3 have you seen in this world? the example I've seen is Internalized Racism

2. We do not live in a post-racial society, why not because even though we're not slaveys anymore. African Americans are still being treated unequal and unjust especially when it comes to our education and, our lawful rights.

3. My personal definition of race is being treated unequally becomes of the color of my skin. I know it's not biological construct because, you're not born being racist, racism is taught. I do know that social construct plays a part of racism because, it's something you have to practice and believe in.

4. Social Sci LibreTexts https://socialsci.libretexts.org I agree with the resource because it talks about how we were divided and treated like we weren't humans because, of the color of our skin.

5. One thing that stood out for me is the different types of races because, I'm only used to see the cultural race. Now that I'm aware of the difference to processes it differently.

1. I think what makes a black family unique is when we take care of our own. For example, not allowing our children to go into the system.

2. I think the strength in the black family is unity for example, we a black family comes together they are unstoppable they can build business. The challenges that black families face is brokenness for example, it too many broken houses for instance father is not present mother is neglecting the kids because she has to work overtime family not being supportive etc.

3. I don't Kown it really depends on the parent up bringing and how they want their children to be raised for example, if the parents were raised in a rough hard environment, they could either teach them their ways or, show them a different view on life.

4. Economic and poverty had an affected and a big impact on black families after slavery. Why I feel that is because we didn't have any opportunity to succeed after slavery was over.

6. One thing that stuck out to me, when I was reading was the mother head of the household. Where they stated that a single mother with a teen is most likely to get pregnant and yes, I do find that to be true and those time but, were in different times and these teenagers with single parents' household are not getting pregnant or having kids. We are basing this off of old theories.
