“…Within the United States, the context on which we focus in the current work, the best-documented evidence of preparing children to respond to potential bias comes from research on families from racial minority groups. In particular, within Black and African American families, parents report frequent use of strategies that are explicitly designed to prepare their children for encountering racial prejudice and discrimination (Hughes, Harding, Niwa, Toro, & Way, 2015;Hughes et al, 2006;Neblett, Philip, Cogburn, & Sellers, 2006;Priest et al, 2014). Parents' efforts to prepare their children for bias commonly involve direct discussions with their children about the experience of living as a member of an ethnic minority group within the United States and offer strategies for helping their children remain attuned to, and cope with, discrimination they may expect to face (Cabrera et al, 2016;Hughes et al, 2006;Hughes, Watford, & Toro, 2016).…”
