  • Summary

    Despite growing interest in antiracism efforts, a dearth of theoretical and empirical work that examines how youth develop beliefs and actions that challenge racism, or develop a critical race consciousness (CRC), remains. In this chapter, we propose an integrative model that articulates the nature and dynamics of youth CRC, which includes racism analysis, racial reflexivity, and antiracism action. First, we describe the nature of racism in the United States and explain how this system serves as a developmental context for youth CRC. Second, we integrate several bodies of research across diverse fields of study (e.g., liberation psychology, developmental psychology, sociology, social work) that ground our model, followed by an in-depth discussion of the model. Then we discuss psychological processes and social contexts that may facilitate or hinder CRC praxis and development. We conclude with recommendations for future CRC research and practice that may stimulate this developmental process.
