This presentation will utilize a historical lens and racial equity framing to provide a decade-by-decade overview of research on Black families starting from 1920 and ending in 2020.  Key themes, identification of areas of in-depth and limited knowledge, and suggestions for additional questions and methods for future research will be shared.
