Riassunto
Much has been made about the rise in single mother households over the past several decades, with significant focus on absent fathers and the challenges single mothers face. Black single mother households are often the face of this debate. Drawing on 31 in-depth interviews with low-income black single mothers of teenagers, we examine the racialized gender strategies these mothers develop in their carework. Findings reveal that amid current gendered and racialized discourses that emphasize the crucial role fathers play in children’s lives, and in a context of intersecting race, gender, and class inequalities, mothers draw heavily on the help of older sons—a phenomenon we call 'brothermothering'—as well as other men and the symbolic power of male authority. We argue that male power in the lives of low-income black single mothers poses dilemmas and contradictions, which both support mothers in their parenting efforts and reproduce patriarchal underpinnings of 'the family' based on male dominance. We situate these findings within the larger contexts of widespread anxiety about single motherhood, dominant beliefs about the roles of 'mother' and 'father,' gendered sexual double standards, and processes of criminalization and hyperincarceration that are particularly salient for low-income black youth, families, and communities.
