This research paper: An 8 page research paper that examines the effects of racism on adolescents. Adolescence is a crucial period in the "physiological, emotional and cognitive development" of students (Jackson, 2005, p. 203). This is a "defining point" that directly influences both students' perceptions of their identity and their confidence in their ability (Jackson, 2005). Complicating adolescent developmental goals is the fact that racism continues to be a defining factor in American society, particularly in regards to the development of African American adolescents. The effects of racism are manifested in complex, often intertwining, repercussions (Banks, et al, 2001). This examination of literature indicates some of the cognitive, physical and social/psychological effects that racism has on minority adolescents. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
