In this ground-breaking book, Constance Williams reveals why, contrary to the adverse outcomes previously attributed to their lot, many black teenage mothers consider their lives enriched by childbearing. Here is a poignant exploration of themeaning of pregnancy and motherhood to young women who, although impoverished, express hope as freely tell their stories and reveal new truths about their attitudes. Williams discoverss that it is more often socialization -- not ignorance -- that leads black teens into motherhood at such a young age. She also reveals why early childbearing for these teens may well be an adaptive and even reasonable response to their social and cultural realities.

One of the most worrisome images in America today is that of the teenage mother. For the African-American community, that image is especially troubling: All the problems of the welfare system seem to spotlight the black teenage mom. Elaine Bell Kaplan's affecting and insightful book dispels common perceptions of these young women. Her interviews with the women themselves, and with their mothers and grandmothers, provide a vivid picture of lives caught in the intersection of race, class, and gender. Kaplan challenges the assumption conveyed in the popular media that the African-American community condones teen pregnancy, single parenting, and reliance on welfare. Especially telling are the feelings of frustration, anger, and disappointment expressed by the mothers and grandmothers Kaplan interviewed. And in listening to teenage mothers discuss their problems, Kaplan hears first-hand of their misunderstandings regarding sex, their fraught relationships with men, and their difficulties with the educational system—all factors that bear heavily on their status as young parents. Kaplan's own experience as an African-American teenage mother adds a personal dimension to this book, and she offers substantial proposals for rethinking and reassessing the class factors, gender relations, and racism that influence black teenagers to become mothers.

In 2013, New York City launched a public education campaign with posters of frowning or crying children saying such things as “I’m twice as likely not to graduate high school because you had me as a teen” and “Honestly, Mom, chances are he won’t stay with you.” Campaigns like this support a public narrative that portrays teen mothers as threatening the moral order, bankrupting state coffers, and causing high rates of poverty, incarceration, and school dropout. These efforts demonize teen mothers but tell us nothing about their lives before they became pregnant. In this myth-shattering book, the authors tell the life stories of 108 brown, white, and black teen mothers, exposing the problems in their lives often overlooked in pregnancy prevention campaigns. Some stories are tragic and painful, marked by sexual abuse, partner violence, and school failure. Others depict "girl next door" characters whose unintended pregnancies lay bare insidious gender disparities. Offering a fresh perspective on the links between teen births and social inequalities, this book demonstrates how the intersecting hierarchies of gender, race, and class shape the biographies of young mothers.

Through an interdisciplinary lens, the purpose of this dissertation was to investigate the impact of stigmatizing discourses on Black teen-mothers' sense of themselves and how they understand their mothering in the context of social discourses. The persistence of the idea that teen mothers are ruining their life chances along with those for their children are stigmatizing discourses, which ultimately frames the lives of teen mothers as a social problem. The significance of this work emerges through the use of intersectionality as a theoretical framework and a Black feminist epistemology to contribute to the field of Black girlhood studies. Through the use of semi-structured interviews and photo elicitation we gain understanding of the social knowledge that is assessed through honest dialogue, empathetic concern, and indications of a person's honorable motives. This study explores the ways a small group of teenage mothers in the southern U.S. navigate the discourses of teenage childbearing and motherhood, how they reproduce or challenge these discourses, and how they work to resist the negative stereotyping and stigma they experience. This study seeks to challenge the broad societal perceptions of Black teenage mothers through engaging with participants' over their ideas of who they are and how they experience motherhood and their educational experiences. Critical reflection was used to juxtapose their stories with possible stereotypes held about them. Access to a group's wisdom is gained only after its members' lived experiences have been validated on their own terms (Collins, 2000). The findings of this study are presented in a format that allows each mother to stand alone in narration of her own counter-story of teenage motherhood; beginning with Kiara (Chapter 4), and then introducing Nigerria (Chapter 5), Adrian (Chapter 6) and Anissa (Chapter 7). Chapter 8 provides a discussion and highlights themes that resonated through the analysis process across all of the narratives of this study. This dissertation is ideal for school administrators, teachers, policymakers, and all those who want to find ways to make schools more hospitable places for teen mothers; its strengths are in the lives and narrative experiences of teen mothers, specifically amongst Black adolescent girls.
