Produktbeschreibung
The primary historical focus of this book falls in
the years between 1940 and 1970 and details the
individual subject and how that child, adolescent or
adult functions in particular situations. Each
chapter covers specific experiences: an emotional
journey toward one's sexual orientation; an urban
experience of homosexuality; 1950s suburbia and
interracial relationships; historical and legal
concepts of interraciality; rural poverty and
childhood trauma; communal responsibility and child
abuse; and maturation and intergenerational
relationships. Family, community and environment are
threads that run throughout, accordingly, social,
political and legal histories are engaged. Black
feminist, trauma and gender theories are utilised
along with sociological studies, child development
and psychology. This approach has enabled close
textual examination so as to ascertain how each
writer deals with the relationship between subject
and society.
