This identity has its Present interpreted by the Dialectics of a new language the Grammatics and is also projected towards the future the come to be.

Partindo de quatro aportes conceituais: ciências sociais, psicologia social materialista histórica, psicanálise e geografia humana, procurou-se compreender identidade e processos subjetivos de jovens negros e não brancos no trânsito das metrópoles globalizadas. Identidades individuais e coletivas que emergem na violência e desigualdade das cidades transnacionais do capitalismo. A metodologia utilizada parte de entrevistas abertas, grupos de conversas com jovens, observação etnográfica aliada à análise de elementos autobiográficos. Conclui-se, no estudo, que a identidade do jovem negro na periferia da metrópole, possui o registro -memória -consciente e inconsciente de seu passado histórico; interpretando o presente na dialética de uma nova linguagem -gramática -que se projeta para o futuro -vir a ser. Nesta não alienação ao contexto, todos eles -no Brasil e na França -iniciam, no chão revolucionário da metrópole, a recusa de uma ordem capitalista hegemônica; a partir da tensão, do conflito, da angústia ou no escape de sua elaboração: a violência. Eles observam o contexto. Ensaiam golpes de revolução: eles gestam, com a força de seu tempo lento, a própria escrita de um futuro breve em franca mutação

Abstract Background: There has been minimal research conducted on the unique experiences of Black youth who transition out of the child welfare system, and as well as the factors that contribute to their success or failure to accessing housing. Purpose: The purpose of study is to explore the needs and experiences of Black youth using Critical Race theory, BlackCrit and Social Capital theory to better understand their experience accessing safe, affordable housing within the Greater Toronto Area after transitioning out of child welfare. Methods: Five Black youth were recruited using site sampling and snow-ball sampling to participate in an arts-based and narrative study. The data was then analyzed in a constant comparative method. Findings: The findings from this study suggest the following things: The emotional roller coaster of being in care, the importance of community and sense of family, youth voices in decision-making process, unpreparedness for independent living, the unawareness of housing options, youth definition of good housing, more resources are needed prior to departure of child welfare. Implications and Recommendations for Change: In light of the findings in this study, a number of recommendations are proposed for improving outcomes for Black youth leaving care and their access to housing. Below is a summary of recommendations: A. To focus on building and providing genuine relationships through a caring adult and permanency for Black youth in care B. Centralize and value the voices of Black youth in care throughout their post-care planning, policy development and research C. To address and respond to the unique experiences that Black youth with disabilities face within the housing market when preparing them for independence outside of the CWS D. To apply a Housing first Youth approach It is my hope that this information will be used to support policy changes and program development in child welfare and the rental housing market that can result in more successful outcomes for Black youth. / Thesis / Master of Social Work (MSW)
