Understanding CRT and its implications for family science
Family science has been slow to incorporate critical race theory (CRT) into research on family experiences and outcomes. Discussions of CRT often reduce it to one idea when it is comprised of several key tenets, including the social construction of race, racism as normal and commonplace, critiques of the liberal state, interest convergence, counterstorytelling, intersectionality and anti-essentialism, and Whiteness as a form of property. CRT scho…
Transformative family scholarship
This introductory essay situates this special issue within the context of antiracism and social justice for family scholars. The editors underscore the political and social context that led the National Council on Family Relations' three flagship journals— Journal of Family Theory & Review (JFTR), Family Relations (FR), and Journal of Marriage and Family (JMF) to collectively invite submissions for separate special issues on Transformative Family…
Class Mobility and Reproduction for Black and White Adults in the United States
The relationship between where people start out in life (class origin) and where they are likely to end up (class destination) is central to any question about the fairness of contemporary society. Yet we often don't have a good picture-literally or metaphorically-of the contours of that relationship. Further, work on class mobility in the United States often glosses over the large differences between white and Black Americans' class positions an…

Why Are We Here? Patterns of Intersectional Motivations Across the Resistance
Can a crowd of individuals who are motivated by a range of issues related to racial identity, class, gender, and sexuality mobilize around a shared issue, and, if so, how does this process work in practice? To date, limited research has explored intersectionality as a mobilization tool for social movements. This article expands recent work on how intersectional motivations influence the constituencies at protest events by comparing across some of…
Intersectionality takes it to the streets
Participants at the Women’s March were motivated by issues that cross identity and issue-based themes in systematic ways.
Caring for Them Like Family
Scholars examining kin and community care have often sought to identify the relative importance of structural and cultural factors on the use and availability of these networks, but research has yielded unclear results in the case of child care. Cultural theories focus on how values, beliefs, and practices lead to differences in kin and community care; structural theories focus on how educational attainment, income, inherited power or inequality,…
The Deadly Challenges of Raising African American Boys
Through 60 in-depth interviews with African American middle- and upper-middle-class mothers, this article examines how the controlling image of the 'thug' influences the concerns these mothers have for their sons and how they parent their sons in light of those concerns. Participants were principally concerned with preventing their sons from being perceived as criminals, protecting their sons' physical safety, and ensuring they did not enact the …
Integrated Motherhood
Existing research assumes that hegemonic mothering ideologies influence U.S. mothers' work and family decisions. These ideologies assume that childrearing is a mother's duty, that mothering occurs within a self-sufficient nuclear family, and that paid employment conflicts with motherhood. Even when mothers do not conform to these ideologies, scholars find that they continue to influence mothers, as exhibited by mothers' efforts to reframe, redefi…
Negotiating 'The Welfare Queen' and 'The Strong Black Woman
This research analyzes how African American middle- and upper-middle-class mothers understand their work and family decision making in relation to two controlling images-the Strong Black Woman (SBW) and the Welfare Queen-that they describe regularly confronting in their lives. In-depth interviews with 60 African American middle- and upper-middle-class mothers reveal the strategies these mothers use to overcome assumptions that they are poor, sing…
