Yet if interpersonal positive online racial experiences may impact self-reported engagement in Black community activism differently by racial identity remains underexamined. Guided by media, sociopolitical, and racial identity theories, we used latent class and regression analyses to examine the role of positive online racial experiences and racial identity profiles on Black adults' engagement in Black community activism. Survey data from 313 Black adults (Mage = 29.38) collected in 2021 were utilized. We generated four racial identity profiles: race-focused (n = 112), idealistic (n = 97), undifferentiated (n = 74), and detached (n = 30). Undifferentiated and detached Black adults engaged in less activism compared to race-focused adults. More positive online racial experiences were associated with more engagement in activism. Associations did not differ by racial identity. Future research should examine how positive online racial experiences make activism more hopeful and capable of creating change.}, journal={COMPUTERS IN HUMAN BEHAVIOR}, author={Volpe, Vanessa V. and Benson, G.

In the current study (n = 594; Mage = 15.4), we used structural equation modeling to examine how stress from individual, institutional, and cultural racism may directly and indirectly relate to critical reflection, critical agency, and critical action for Black adolescents. Analyses indicated that individual and cultural racial stress were positively related to critical reflection and critical agency. Further, all three types of racism were directly related to critical action. Individual and cultural racial stress were also related to critical action indirectly through critical reflection – perceived inequality and critical agency. Altogether, these findings provide empirical evidence for how experiences of racism motivate critical consciousness development for Black adolescents. In efforts to bolster critical consciousness, practitioners may consider providing space and time for Black youth to discuss their own experiences of racism.}, journal={JOURNAL OF APPLIED DEVELOPMENTAL PSYCHOLOGY}, author={Hope, Elan C. and Smith, Chauncey D. and Cryer-Coupet, Qiana R. and Briggs, Alexis S.}, year={2020} }
