Synopsis

Stickin' To, Watchin' Over, and Gettin' With provides the guidance you need to protect your children from racist hostility while at the same time teaching them character and responsibility.

From the Publisher

"The book draws on the richness of African American storytelling, proverbs, and the oral tradition to teach parents how to prepare their children to survive and thrive in a society where there is still a residual of racism. It is a timely book that makes a vital contribution to the literature on African American children and parenting."
— Joseph L. White, professor emeritus of psychology and psychiatry, University of California, Irvine

"Stickin' To, Watchin' Over, and Getting' With [is] a must read for educators, social workers, and others focused on the success of African American children."
— Kaye E. Burnside, regional superintendent, West Contra Costa Unified School District, Richmond, California

"Parents raising children of African descent in America will find this book useful. The authors convey the message that love and trust are the foundations of discipline."
— Ronald Braithwaite, coauthor, Health Issues in the Black Community
