Do All Blacks & African Americans Have The Same Outcome?, Amelia F. Belchior
Do All Blacks & African Americans Have The Same Outcome?, Amelia F. Belchior
FHSS Mentored Research Conference
Do blacks and African Americans have the same outcome in terms of self-esteem, GPA, and SEC? Those who are aware of black history and understand the civil rights movement have higher self-esteem. Those blacks who accept their skin color and apply the self-fulling prophesy of what black is know to be, they have higher self-esteem as well. Black immigrants are more likely to accept their skin color and not associate blackness with living in the ghetto, being good at playing sports and dancing; they are more likely to have have self-esteem than native born African-Americans.
