The Black Kids by Christina Hammonds Reed is a coming-of-age novel set in Los Angeles during the 1992 Rodney King riots. It follows Ashley Bennett, a Black teenager from a wealthy family, as she begins to see the sharp contrasts between her privileged world and the realities her community faces. Both powerful and deeply personal, the book explores identity, friendship, and what it means to find your voice in times of turmoil.
