Title
'Uh, Can I say something?': An Exploration of Pre-Adolescent Black Female Subjectivity
Abstract
An exploration of the subjectivities of ten Black females between the ages of nine and twelve who live in a large metropolis in Quebec. Weekly group discussions, entitled Girltalk, allowed for an exploration of such issues as geographic location, the male gaze and performance gender, and perceptions of blackness. The author concludes with the suggestion for a need for Girltalk spaces where preadolescents can continually examine common truths and issues of power as they pertain to their lives.
