Overview

What does it mean to be Black in a family where not everyone looks like you? In Being Black in My Family, young readers explore identity, belonging, and the beauty of their Blackness-even in spaces where it might feel invisible. Through honest reflections, heartfelt questions, and gentle storytelling, this book invites children to feel seen, supported, and proud of who they are. Whether it's curly hair, deep questions, or learning about culture, this book helps children navigate the joy and complexity of growing up in a multiracial family-with love leading the way. This book is for the black children who are cherished yet often feel invisible in the place they call home. For the ones who, in the depths of their souls, wrestle with a quiet, unshakable sense of not belonging. To the seven-year-old ChaQuana McEntyre Jones, LuCretia Jones, and Sade Sandidge-this is for you. I see you. We see each other. A Note From the Author Dear Reader, Thank you for spending time with Being Black in My Family. I wrote this book for kids just like you-kids who might have big questions, mixed feelings, and beautiful, unique families. I want you to know something very important: you are not alone. Your identity is not confusing-it's complex, powerful, and worth celebrating. Being Black is not about how others define you-it's about how you feel, what you choose to embrace, and the stories you carry in your heart. It's okay to have questions. It's okay to feel proud and unsure sometimes. That's part of growing. Just remember: you are whole. You are worthy. And you belong. To the caregivers and adults reading this: thank you for showing up for the children in your life. Keep listening. Keep learning. And know that your presence matters more than perfection ever could. With love and hope, ChaQuana McEntyre - Author of Being Black in My Family
