This book takes a close look at how girls of color think, talk, and learn about sex and sexual ethics, how they navigate their developing sexuality through cultural stereotypes about sex and body image, and how they negotiate their sexual learning within a co-ed sex education classroom. While girls of color are often pictured as at risk or engaged in risky behavior, the analyses of focus groups and classroom discussions, show not only girls’ vulnerabilities but their strengths as they work with integrating diverse identities, media messages, school policy and history into their understanding of the sexual world they are exposed to and a part of.

"Girls of Color, Sexuality, and Sex Education successfully accomplishes at least 4 things. With regard to content, it summarizes and critiques how girls of color (especially Black girls) think, talk, and learn about sexuality, by reviewing the extant literature on body image, respect, the sex education classroom, and media through a feminist lens. ... Overall, this volume is a welcome addition to the literature on sexuality and sex education and will be of value to students and scholars." (Michael R. Stevenson, PsycCRITIQUES, Vol. 62 (6), February, 2017)
