A growing body of research suggests Black Americans thrive in the face of racial adversity when provided the resources to challenge oppressive narratives and systems. Black history knowledge (BHK) is one such psychological resource that has been identified as

Implications for research, practice, training, and social justice advocacy will also be examined
