I've used this book with several children and pre-teens. It is filled with captivating illustrations and worksheets to use with the child or within a group setting. The book is broken down into numerous sections covering:
Identity
Stereotyping
The impact of Integration
Cultural Boundaries
African-American Male-Female Relationships
Racism and Its Impact
What is Chemical Dependence?
How Does Someone Become Chemically Dependent?
How Chemical Dependence Affects Friends, Family, and You
How Chemical Dependence Affects the African-American Community
Communicating
Dealing With Feelings
Dealing With Peer Pressure
Making Decisions/Solving Problems/Resolving Conflicts
Kids can relate to the no-nonsense writing style, and the topics and worksheets are great for generating constructive conversation. This is possibly the most productive workbook I've found to use with pre-teens, and it's wonderful to find one dealing specifically with African-American children. Bravo!
