ABSTRACT: Caregiver stereotypes typically favor a mother’s parenting style, due to which a father’s parental contribution is often undervalued. While fathers from many cultures are affected by the preference for female parenting styles, Black males are especially troubled by negative preconceived norms. Could the fact that, traditionally, men have only been given space to parent through play be the reason that parental contributions of fathers, in general, and Black fathers, in particular, are not valued equally, especially with regard to schooling? The aim of the present study was thus to examine the effect of African American fathering involvement and the resulting educational outcomes of their children utilizing interviews and video clip reflections. The study sample was comprised of six African American fathers aged 33−58 with children aged 0−25. The results revealed three themes, namely (1) the importance of teamwork as crucial to the role of a Black father; (2) the use of different strategies based on their child’s personality to best engage with them as a parent as well as homework assistance; and (3) using play, either as a physical activity or as part of a learning objective, which also included physical activity such as sports. Play thus had a key and interrelated role in fostering positive educational outcomes in the three areas of fathering involvement: accessibility, engagement, and responsibility.
摘要:对照顾者的刻板印象通常倾向于母亲的养育方式,因此父亲在养育方面的贡献往往被低估。虽然许多文化背景下的父亲都受到偏爱女性育儿方式的影响,但黑人男性尤其受到负面先入为主的规范的困扰。传统上,男性只有在玩耍中才有时间照顾孩子,这一事实是否会成为父亲,尤其是黑人父亲,对父母的贡献没有得到平等重视的原因,尤其是在学校教育方面?因此,本研究的目的是利用访谈和视频片段反思来检验非裔美国人父亲参与的影响及其子女的教育成果。研究样本由6位年龄在33 - 58岁之间的非裔美国父亲组成,他们的孩子年龄在0 - 25岁之间。结果揭示了三个主题,即(1)团队合作对黑人父亲角色的重要性;(2)根据孩子的个性使用不同的策略,以最好地与他们互动,并提供家庭作业协助;(3)将玩耍作为一种身体活动或学习目标的一部分,其中也包括体育运动等身体活动。因此,玩耍在培养积极的教育成果方面具有关键和相互关联的作用,涉及父亲参与的三个方面:可及性、参与度和责任。

Pub Date : 2017-12-12 DOI: 10.2979/SPECTRUM.6.1.02
Derrick R. Brooms, A. R. Davis
ABSTRACT: This qualitative study investigated the college aspirations of 59 Black males who attended three different colleges. We explore the internal and external factors that contributed to how these students aspired to and were exposed to college. Specifically, Community Cultural Wealth is used to investigate how Black male students’ college aspirations and expectations were informed by aspirational, social, and familial capital. The experiences shared by students in this study are intended to advance knowledge regarding the precollege experiences of Black male students as well as to enhance research and practices that increase Black males’ retention and success in higher education.
摘要:本研究调查了59名就读于三所不同大学的黑人男性的大学抱负。我们探讨了这些学生如何渴望和接触大学的内部和外部因素。具体来说,社区文化财富被用来调查黑人男性学生的大学愿望和期望是如何受到愿望资本、社会资本和家庭资本的影响的。本研究中学生分享的经验旨在增进对黑人男性学生大学前经历的了解,并加强研究和实践,以提高黑人男性在高等教育中的保留率和成功率。

The Disadvantages of African American and Somali Men in the US Criminal Justice System 非裔美国人和索马里人在美国刑事司法体系中的劣势

ABSTRACT: It is well-known that African American men are unfairly treated when encountering the United States’ criminal justice system. Systemic racial and class biases forge frameworks of inequality from arrest to sentencing. Similarly, Somali men are treated with the same disdain when encountering the American criminal justice system, which occurs based on the racial categorization of Somalis as Black. Additionally, resettled Somali refugee men are saddled with the label of “refugee” as they encounter the criminal justice system, which identifies those resettled in the US as “outsiders.” Even more so, refugees from Somalia are perceived as terrorists. Consequently, when young Somali men encounter the American criminal justice system, they enter with potentially more disadvantages than African American men. This is an initial analysis seeking to provide a foundational discussion for exploring the similarities and differences of African American and Somali refugee men as they maneuver through the criminal justice system in the US.
摘要:非洲裔美国男性在美国刑事司法体系中受到的不公平待遇是众所周知的。系统性的种族和阶级偏见形成了从逮捕到判决的不平等框架。同样,索马里男子在遇到美国刑事司法制度时也受到同样的蔑视,这是基于索马里人的种族分类为黑人。此外,重新安置的索马里难民男子在遇到刑事司法系统时被贴上了“难民”的标签,在美国重新安置的人被认定为“局外人”。更严重的是,来自索马里的难民被视为恐怖分子。因此,当年轻的索马里男子遭遇美国刑事司法系统时,他们比非洲裔美国男子更有可能处于不利地位。这是一个初步的分析,旨在为探索非洲裔美国人和索马里难民男性在美国刑事司法系统中的异同提供一个基础的讨论。

ABSTRACT: The aim of this study was to explore the influence of social media and cultural identity on substance use from the perspective of African and African American college students in the United States. Focus groups (N = 29) were held that were comprised of African and African American male college students from a large Midwestern university. Each focus group was audiotaped, transcribed, and analyzed using the elements from the PEN-3 model. Themes emerged from each sub-component, including perceptions of drug use, social media, and culture; enablers, such as social media and musicians/artists; and nurturers, such as family and peers. The African culture is a protective factor against the influence of social media on substance use for African students compared to African American culture. Future strategies are needed to address substance use among young adults that incorporate cultural differences.
摘要:本研究旨在从非洲裔和非裔美国大学生的视角,探讨社交媒体和文化认同对物质使用的影响。焦点小组(N = 29)由来自中西部一所大型大学的非洲裔和非裔美国男大学生组成。对每个焦点小组进行录音、转录,并使用PEN-3模型中的元素进行分析。每个子组成部分都出现了主题,包括对吸毒、社交媒体和文化的看法;推动者,如社交媒体和音乐家/艺术家;还有养育者,比如家庭和同伴。与非裔美国人文化相比,非洲文化是防止社交媒体对非洲学生物质使用影响的保护因素。需要制定未来的战略,以解决年轻人中包含文化差异的物质使用问题。

“Ain’t I a Teacher?”: A Television Analysis of Black Male Media-Teachers on The Steve Harvey Show “我不是老师吗?”——《史蒂夫·哈维秀》对黑人男性媒体教师的电视分析
Pub Date : 2017-05-30 DOI: 10.2979/SPECTRUM.5.2.03

Depictions of American educators in fictional television programming are often less professional and more contradictory than their real life counterparts. Leslie Swetnam’s (1992) study explored media distortions of the teacher image. Swetnam’s findings revealed a number of media-teacher demographic characteristics and stereotypes. The current research extends Swetnam’s study by examining the presence of her media-teacher stereotypes and Jackson and Dangerfield’s (2004) five factors of Black masculine positionality in the characters of Steve Hightower and Cedric Robinson on the American television series The Steve Harvey Show. The analysis determined that the television representations of both characters incorporated familiar themes associated with Swetnam’s media-teacher demographic characteristics, teacher stereotypes, and Black masculinity traits. Additionally, the study revealed an overwhelming emphasis on the romantic pursuits of Steve Hightower throughout the 50 examined episodes, presenting criteria for a new media-teacher stereotype: the suave, emotionally indifferent, romance-driven teacher.
在虚构的电视节目中,对美国教育工作者的描述往往比现实生活中的教育者更不专业,也更矛盾。Leslie Swetnam(1992)的研究探讨了媒体对教师形象的扭曲。斯威特南的研究结果揭示了一些媒体教师的人口统计学特征和刻板印象。目前的研究扩展了斯威特南的研究,考察了她的媒体教师刻板印象的存在,以及杰克逊和丹杰菲尔德(2004)在美国电视剧《史蒂夫·哈维秀》中史蒂夫·海托华和塞德里克·罗宾逊角色中黑人男性地位的五个因素。分析表明,这两个角色的电视表现结合了与斯威特南的媒体——教师人口特征、教师刻板印象和黑人男子气概特征相关的熟悉主题。此外,研究还显示,在50集被调查的剧集中,史蒂夫·海托华的浪漫追求受到了压倒性的重视,这为新媒体教师的刻板印象提供了标准:温文尔雅、情感冷漠、以浪漫为导向的教师。

Project Narrative: The Lessons Learned from Implementing the Prison Education Project 项目叙述:实施监狱教育项目的经验教训
Pub Date : 2017-05-30 DOI: 10.2979/spectrum.5.2.05
Renford Reese
ABSTRACT: This article examines the hard lessons learned from the author’s development of the Prison Education Project (PEP). PEP has expanded educational opportunities for inmates in 11 California correctional facilities. With the assistance of 600 university student and faculty volunteers, PEP has serviced approximately 4,000 inmates in these facilities since 2011. By providing academic, life skills, and career development programing, PEP aims to educate, empower, and transform the lives of incarcerated individuals. This reflective essay is more about the lessons learned from founding and directing PEP than it is about the program activities of the organization. The robust spirit of volunteerism is a central component of the discussion in this article and the “Reciprocal Reflex” is at the heart of the PEP volunteer experience. This phenomenon ignites the passion and gratitude of both the volunteers and inmates. The volunteers learn just as much as they teach and the inmates teach just as much as they learn. The discussion of the implementation challenges should give the reader an understanding of what it takes to create and sustain a nonprofit organization that helps inspire and empower those entangled in the criminal justice system. It concisely summarizes the “big picture” lessons learned from implementing the largest volunteer-based prison education program of its kind in the United States.
摘要:本文探讨了监狱教育项目发展的惨痛教训。人教委扩大了加州11个惩教机构的囚犯受教育的机会。自2011年以来,在600名大学生和教职员工志愿者的帮助下,人发计划为这些设施中的大约4,000名囚犯提供了服务。通过提供学术、生活技能和职业发展规划,PEP旨在教育、授权和改变被监禁者的生活。这篇反思性的文章更多的是关于建立和指导PEP的经验教训,而不是关于组织的项目活动。强大的志愿精神是本文讨论的核心组成部分,而“互惠反射”是PEP志愿者经历的核心。这种现象点燃了志愿者和囚犯的热情和感激之情。志愿者教的东西和他们学的东西一样多,囚犯教的东西和他们学的一样多。对实施挑战的讨论应该让读者了解如何创建和维持一个非营利组织,帮助激励和授权那些在刑事司法系统中纠缠的人。它简明扼要地总结了从实施美国同类最大的以志愿者为基础的监狱教育项目中获得的“总体”经验教训。

C. S. Platt, A. Hilton
This article explores the perspectives of Black male doctoral students around selecting dissertation and research topics. In addition to the challenges that all doctoral students face when selecting a dissertation topic, Black male doctoral students also have had to come to terms with how much or how little race matters in their research agendas. In doing so, the authors find that they possess a unique academic currency that enables them to diversify the literature and connects the needs of the community to the resources of the university.
本文探讨了黑人男性博士生在选择论文和研究课题方面的观点。除了所有博士生在选择论文主题时面临的挑战外,黑人男性博士生还必须接受种族在他们的研究议程中有多大或有多大的影响。在这样做的过程中,作者发现他们拥有一种独特的学术货币,使他们能够使文献多样化,并将社区的需求与大学的资源联系起来。

HIV and African Americans: Relationship to Cultural Competence, Implicit Bias, Social Determinants, and US Jails and Prisons 艾滋病和非裔美国人:与文化能力、隐性偏见、社会决定因素和美国监狱的关系
Pub Date : 2017-05-30 DOI: 10.2979/SPECTRUM.5.2.06

ABSTRACT: Have you ever wondered why African American women and men have the highest rate of new HIV infection in the United States? Although African Americans represent only 13.2% of the US population, African American women and men comprised an estimated 61.6% (5,128/8,328) and 40.2% (14,305/35,571) of new HIV infections, respectively. This article aims to explore this question along with proposing solutions for this national health crisis. Implementation of the Department of Health and Human Services, Office of Minority Health’s 15 Culturally and Linguistically Appropriate Service (CLAS) standards, adopting strategies to mitigate implicit bias, recalibrating sentencing policy for nonviolent offences, pre-exposure prophylaxis or PrEP for high-risk groups, addressing inequities related to social determinants of health, and implementing policies such as Congresswoman Maxine Waters’s Stop AIDS in Prison Act are keys to helping eliminate disparities in new HIV infection rates adversely impacting African Americans.
摘要:你有没有想过为什么非洲裔美国女性和男性在美国的艾滋病新发感染率最高?虽然非洲裔美国人只占美国人口的13.2%,但非洲裔美国女性和男性分别占新感染艾滋病毒的61.6%(5128 / 8328)和40.2%(14305 / 35571)。本文旨在探讨这一问题,并提出解决这一全国性健康危机的办法。执行卫生与公众服务部、少数民族健康办公室的15项文化和语言适宜服务标准,采取战略减轻隐性偏见,重新调整非暴力犯罪的量刑政策,对高危群体进行暴露前预防或预防措施,解决与健康的社会决定因素有关的不平等问题;实施诸如国会女议员玛克辛·沃特斯(Maxine Waters)提出的《狱中防治艾滋病法案》(Stop AIDS in Prison Act)等政策,是帮助消除对非裔美国人产生不利影响的艾滋病新发感染率差异的关键。

Marxist Materialism and Critical Race Theory: A Comparative Analysis of Media and Cultural Influence on the Formation of Stereotypes and Proliferation of Police Brutality against Black Men 马克思主义唯物主义与批判种族理论:媒介与文化对黑人刻板印象形成与警察暴力泛滥的影响比较分析
Pub Date : 2017-05-30 DOI: 10.2979/SPECTRUM.5.2.01

ABSTRACT: Using Marxist and Critical Race Theory frameworks to call codified culture into question, this essay explores how diverse modes of expression are crushed by the restraint of the individual and through a lack of variance that prohibits progress for Black males in American society. This essay critiques the capitalist structure that insists on the illusion of uniformity when it clearly benefits and operates from emphasizing difference. The article compares the impact of a consumerist frame of reference on career, residence, and material possessions; media technologies’ published messages and images that contribute to negative stereotypes; and the formation of style as an act of naming or resisting with regard to the proliferation of questionable and brutal treatment of Black males by law enforcement agents, in particular, and society, in general.
摘要:本文运用马克思主义和批判种族理论的框架,对法典化的文化提出质疑,探讨了个体的约束和多样性的缺乏阻碍了黑人男性在美国社会的进步,如何压制了多样化的表达方式。这篇文章批判了资本主义结构,它坚持统一的幻觉,但它显然是通过强调差异而受益和运作的。本文比较了消费主义参考框架对职业、居住和物质财富的影响;媒体技术发布的信息和图像助长了负面刻板印象;风格的形成是指指认或抵制执法人员,特别是整个社会对黑人男性的可疑和野蛮对待。

ABSTRACT: This case study is focused on the integration of the all White, southern, public University of Virginia and desegregation in the state of Virginia. The objective of the study is to provide a detailed account of the University of Virginia’s resistance to desegregation and to study events before its integration by examining the experience of Gregory Swanson, a 25-year-old who applied for admission to the university’s law school in 1949, and, as a result of a lawsuit, became the first African American to gain admission. This challenge to the University of Virginia forced it to facilitate rights for equal access to education based on Swanson’s application to the law school. The case study is drawn from scholarly documents, institutional records, news articles, court cases, letters, and interviews.
摘要:本案例研究聚焦于全白人、南方、公立弗吉尼亚大学的种族融合与弗吉尼亚州的种族隔离。这项研究的目的是详细描述弗吉尼亚大学对废除种族隔离的抵制,并通过考察25岁的格雷戈里·斯旺森(Gregory Swanson)的经历来研究弗吉尼亚大学整合之前的事件。斯旺森于1949年申请进入弗吉尼亚大学法学院,由于一场诉讼,他成为第一个被录取的非洲裔美国人。这一对弗吉尼亚大学的挑战迫使它根据斯旺森向法学院的申请促进平等受教育的权利。案例研究是从学术文件、机构记录、新闻文章、法庭案件、信件和访谈中提取的。
