It\u2019s the end of senior year and they\u2019re spending more time at the beach than in the classroom. They can already feel the sunny days and endless possibilities of summer.<br \/>\nEverything changes one afternoon in April, when four LAPD officers are acquitted after beating a black man named Rodney King half to death. Suddenly, Ashley\u2019s not just one of the girls. She\u2019s one of the black kids.<br \/>\nAs violent protests engulf LA and the city burns, Ashley tries to continue on as if life were normal. Even as her self-destructive sister gets dangerously involved in the riots. Even as the model black family fa\u00e7ade her wealthy and prominent parents have built starts to crumble. Even as her best friends help spread a rumor that could completely derail the future of her classmate and fellow black kid, LaShawn Johnson.<br \/>\nWith her world splintering around her, Ashley, along with the rest of LA, is left to question who is the <i>us<\/i>? And who is the <i>them<\/i>?<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\t\t<script type=\"application\/ld+json\">\n{\n\t\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\n\t\"@type\":\"Review\",\n\t\"datePublished\": \"2020-08-16T10:00:45+00:00\",\n\t\"description\": \"Happy Sunday and welcome to my stop on the THE BLACK KIDS blog tour!

I was <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">sooo <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">angsty and unsure of myself as a teenager and I have no desire to return to any of it for any substantial length of time. Except for maybe the not having to pay bills part.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>What would you do if you spent the day with Ashley? Where would you go to eat, hang out, relax, etc.?\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We would absolutely spend the day being beach bums together. Then, maybe at some point, we\u2019d head back to my parents\u2019 house, chill at their pool and have my dad grill us up some deliciousness. I\u2019m a mermaid at heart.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>If Ashley were to hang out with characters from other YA books, who would they be and why?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So technically it\u2019s middle grade, but I think she and Alberta and Edie from <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Only Black Girls in Town<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> would thoroughly get each other and hang out with each other if they were the same age. Being the only middle\/upper middle-class Black girls in a California beach town struggling to figure themselves out, navigating friendships and uncovering secrets? Check.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>What was your favorite bit of research you ended up not using?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I\u2019m not sure it technically counts as research, but I dug further into the history of this place of which I was already vaguely aware. In Pacific Palisades there are these crumbling structures that used to be a Nazi bunker called Murphy\u2019s Ranch. It was supposed to be a haven for Nazi sympathizers who were anticipating the fall of the US to The Third Reich. And apparently at one point in the 60s and 70s it was converted into an artists\u2019 compound. But now the trail around it is a little overgrown and mostly used for hiking and the abandoned structures are covered in graffiti and graffiti art, which of course is often the creation of Black and brown kids. So this place is such a microcosm of Los Angeles and America itself \u2013 a white supremacist compound, built on stolen Native land, in city founded by Black and Latinx folks, and now young people have found a way to defiantly create a kind of beauty and their own subversion of this place in an area that is largely very wealthy and white. I had to cut the scene that included it, but it was among my favorite.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>What is your favorite quote, scene, or moment from\u00a0<i>The Black Kids<\/i>?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That\u2019s like asking me to choose one of my children over the other. I don\u2019t have any kids, but all of the sentences that make up the book feel like they are. Though I suspect some parents might be ok with choosing one kid over the other? My sister\u2019s definitely the better sibling of the two of us. Anyway, I do really love when Ashley and LaShawn are on the trampoline together. That moment of them coming together and the fact that they\u2019re just being teenagers and finding hope and joy in the middle of all this external and emotional chaos was important to me.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>What would your\u00a0characters\u00a0think about everything that&#8217;s happening in\u00a02020?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I think they would be frustrated with what\u2019s going on, but not surprised. Especially since towards the end, Ashley becomes fully aware of the ways in which riots and race and the destruction of Black bodies is part of a continuum in the fairly modern history of this country. That said, I also think they might be hopeful in that the recent protests have been more multicultural, multigenerational and multinational than any of the protests that have preceded them and organizers aren\u2019t letting up. So I personally really hope it\u2019s a sign of a significant shift in how we tackle systemic and institutional racism moving forward and I think they would too.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Triangle-Banner-Summer-2020.png\" alt=\"Divider\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7910\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Bookstagram-Summer-2020.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Bookstagram-Summer-2020.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Bookstagram-Summer-2020-300x59.png 300w, https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Bookstagram-Summer-2020-768x150.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-8244\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/the-black-kids-bookstagram-1024x1024.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/the-black-kids-bookstagram-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/the-black-kids-bookstagram-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/the-black-kids-bookstagram-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/the-black-kids-bookstagram-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/the-black-kids-bookstagram-1536x1536.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/the-black-kids-bookstagram.png 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Triangle-Banner-Summer-2020.png\" alt=\"Divider\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7693\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/All-About-the-Author-Summer-2020.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/All-About-the-Author-Summer-2020.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/All-About-the-Author-Summer-2020-300x59.png 300w, https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/All-About-the-Author-Summer-2020-768x150.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-8209 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Christina-Hammonds-Reed-232x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"232\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Christina-Hammonds-Reed-232x300.jpg 232w, https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Christina-Hammonds-Reed.jpg 325w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 232px) 100vw, 232px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"font_8\"><strong>Christina Hammonds Reed<\/strong> holds an MFA in Film and Television Production from the University of Southern California\u2019s School of Cinematic Arts.
