{"product_id":"the-weight-i-carry-aaron-fields-9781953962706","title":"The Weight I Carry","description":"Black boys are disproportionately affected by the failures within each of Bronfenbrenner's systems. They are overdisciplined and under-supported in schools (Microsystem). Their families face barriers in connecting with institutions (Mesosystem). Policies and institutions impact them without ever knowing them (Exosystem). Media, culture, and systemic racism, self-oppression \u0026amp; self-hatred define their identity before they can (Macrosystem). These wounds, if unhealed, become patterns that echo across time (Chronosystem). This book is a call to action. To see, hear, protect, and advocate for Black boys-before the world decides who they are without ever asking. How the world around a Black boy can fail him, system by system, community by community, \u0026amp; household to household-affecting his confidence, safety, mental health, identity, and future. We'll touch on implicit bias, adultification, systemic neglect, over-discipline, under-support, and generational impact-layer by layer, in a way a child (and adult) can grasp.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Aaron Fields\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 195396270X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781953962706\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Write Perspective, LLC.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/04\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 40\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 8.50w x 0.11d","brand":"Aaron Fields","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48442938392831,"sku":"9781953962706","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2fac731d-37d5-442c-8ee6-e8c345cb4a23.jpg?v=1777200751","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-weight-i-carry-aaron-fields-9781953962706","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
