“…In fact, studies show that individuals who have more education tend to consume more news than those who are less educated (Ksiazek, Malthouse, and Webster 2010). Last, racial issues play a central role in social activism among college students (Hope, Keels, and Durkee 2016;Rhoads 2016) and it is possible that college students engage in crime and race-related stories differently than noncollege students. Thus, our sample is not generalizable to the public, and we recommend that future studies replicate this research with a more diverse group of adults.…”

A substantial body of research indicates that television news consumption is associated with criminal stereotyping. However, less is known about how online media, such as Internet news and social media news consumption, is associated with such attitudes. Using a multisite sample of mostly young adults, the current study examines the relationships between multiple types of online news consumption and crime news engagement on racially typifying African Americans as violent, property, and drug offenders. Findings reveal that Internet news consumption is negatively related, but social media news consumption is positively related, to racially typifying African Americans as criminals. Beyond consumption, social media crime news engagement is negatively related to racial typification. Last, there is some evidence that the association between online media consumption and engagement varies by race and political ideology. Findings and direction for future research is discussed.

“…By assessing activism orientation as a multidimensional construct, we can account for whether there are different psychological mechanisms that may lead to extra‐parliamentary actions with differing levels of risk. Finally, researchers find that pathways to political participation may be different for Black youth than youth from other marginalized racial‐ethnic backgrounds (Diemer, ; Hope, Keels, & Durkee, ; Hope, Velez, Offidani‐Bertrand, Keels, & Durkee, ). This may be, in part, due to a lack of domain specificity with regard to the measurement of activism.…”

Highlights• We investigate institutional and cultural racial discrimination and Black youth activism orientation.• Racial identity that emphasizes the importance of Blackness relates to low-risk activism orientation.• Nationalist racial ideology promotes high-and low-risk Black community activism orientation.• Relationship between racial discrimination and activism orientation varies by public regard.• Teens and young adults need opportunities to process racism to support low-and high-risk activism.Abstract The current study examines how experiences of institutional and cultural racial discrimination relate to orientations toward activism in the Black community among Black adolescents and emerging adults. Furthermore, we investigate the role of racial identity (centrality, public regard, nationalism) as moderators of those relations. In a national sample of 888 Black adolescents and emerging adults, we found that experiences of cultural racial discrimination, racial centrality, and nationalism ideology were related to a greater orientation toward low-risk Black community activism. For high-risk activism, nationalism was associated with a greater likelihood to participate in future social action in the Black community. The relation between experiences of institutional racial discrimination and high-risk activism orientation was moderated by public regard. For Black adolescents and emerging adults who believe others view Black people negatively, more experiences of institutional racial discrimination were related to a greater high-risk activism orientation. Findings highlight the importance of investigating racial discrimination as a multidimensional construct that extends beyond individual interactions and microaggressions. Furthermore, these findings underscore how phenomenological variation in experiences of racial discrimination and racial identity differentially influence adolescent and emerging adult orientations toward social action in and for the Black community.

“…Globally, Black people (i.e., people of African ancestry) experience racial bias rooted in systems of racial oppression (e.g., slavery, apartheid, colonization; ). Black youth in nations with racial stratification have resisted oppression by engaging in political movements (e.g., South African Students’ Movement, Black Lives Matter; ). However, few studies have examined the factors that promote youth's understanding of oppression and engagement in activism.…”

Sociopolitical development (SPD) is the process by which individuals become aware of social inequality, recognize the status of their social identities, and engage in activism. For racially marginalized youth, race is an important aspect of their SPD. Yet few studies have considered the connections between racial factors and youth's SPD. In this article, we introduce an integrative model situating racial sociocultural processes (i.e., racial identity, racial socialization, and experiences of racial discrimination) within current SPD theory. In particular, we look at African American youth as a case study to discuss how sociocultural factors can contribute to youth's awareness of structures of social inequality (i.e., critical social analysis) and engagement in action against social inequality (i.e., sociopolitical action). We conclude with suggestions for research.
