“…These vicarious experiences might compromise their feelings of safety in countries of supposed "refuge." For example, the Black Lives Matter movement raised awareness among young Hmong refugees of the structural injustices that continue to impede the successful inclusion of refugees and migrants, especially people of color (Vang & Myers, 2021).…”

Of the estimated 35.3 million refugees around the world (UNHCR, Figures at a Glance, 2022), approximately 50% are children under the age of 18. Refugee adolescents represent a unique group as they navigate developmental tasks in an unstable and often threatening environment or in resettlement contexts in which they often face marginalization. In addition to physiological, social, and psychological changes that mark adolescence, refugee youth often face traumatic experiences, acculturative stress, discrimination, and a lack of basic resources. In this consensus statement, we examine research on refugee adolescents' developmental tasks, acculturative tasks, and psychological adjustment using Suárez‐Orozco and colleague's integrative risk and resilience model for immigrant‐origin children and youth proposed by Suárez‐Orozco et al. Finally, we discuss recommendations—moving from proximal to more distal contexts.

“…Seemingly, the BLM movement has garnered support from Latinos who acknowledge systematic racism and share the goal of criminal justice reform (Corral 2020). Likewise, a few ethnographic studies have recorded a number of protests in New York and Minnesota where many Asian Americans attended in solidarity with Black Lives Matter (Liu 2018;Vang and Myers 2021). Indeed, the widespread use of xenophobic rhetoric toward racial and religious minorities during the Trump presidency and the rise of anti-Asian hate crimes during the COVID-19 pandemic have increased such prospects for minority coalition-building.…”

This study explores the factors that influence Asian Americans’ perception of interracial commonality with Blacks and Latinos. Using the 2018 Civic Engagement and Political Participation of Asian Americans Survey, this research tests a model of competing theoretical explanations for Asian Americans’ intergroup commonality: group consciousness, group identity, views of discrimination, and intergroup contact. Results from ordered logistic regression analyses suggest that group consciousness, ethnic identity, and intergroup contact via friendship are robust predictors of Asian Americans’ feelings of closeness to Blacks and Latinos. However, Asian Americans’ perceptions of discrimination are unlikely to result in higher levels of the perceived commonality with outgroups. This study provides a valuable addition to the existing literature on interminority relations by identifying opportunities for Asian Americans to join cross-racial alliances. The conclusion of the article points to the important role that community-based organizations can play in bringing specific Asian American ethnic groups into such coalitions and promoting direct interactions between Asian Americans and other racial groups.
