William L. Conwill Ph.D., "Training Black Spirit: Ethics for African American Teens"
English | ISBN: 1579512224 | 2016 | 180 pages | EPUB | 6 MB
Like all teens, African American teens find themselves wondering what they should or should not be doing and how they should behave toward each other - only they often have no male role model in the home and negative models, like gang-banger, on the street. As they struggle to build their characters, they receive feedback from multiple sources, causing confusion. Training Black Spirit offers a guide through the fog of adolescence by providing a personal training aid in ethics - values - especially tailored for Black teens. It holds that our spirits, which protect and sustain us, direct and unify our thoughts, efforts, and actions.
