Surviving and Being Raised After Jim Crow as Generation X

from In The Know with Tony Reeves · host Anthony Reeves

In this powerful follow-up to “What They Didn’t Teach Us,” Anthony Reeves reflects on the unique experience of being raised as a Generation X child in a newly desegregated America. Guided by Baby Boomer parents who grew up in the thick of segregation, Gen X kids were thrust into a world of new laws but old attitudes. This episode explores the community-based parenting tools passed down from the Civil Rights era, the unspoken rules that protected us, and the critical role of the Black church as a cultural anchor. A must-listen for anyone seeking to understand the transition from overt to covert racism—and how a generation learned to survive it. 🎧 Listen and follow for more untold stories about race, resilience, and generational transformation.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/in-the-know-with-tony-reeves--5596987/support.
