Through a Black feminist lens, this article reveals how Black mothers distinctly identify what vicarious experiences of racism are, and how they generate stress within their familial context. Regardless of whether the experience was actual or anticipated, mothers identified the stress suffered shaping their mental, emotional, and physical well-being. Hyperawareness was the primary source of vicarious racism-related stress for mothers, through either their children's actualized experiences via rumination or anticipated experiences via hypervigilance.

Mothers in this study discussed thinking about their children's experiences of racism often or daily, an experience defined in this study as hyperawareness. This study utilized qualitative in-depth interviews with 35 Black mothers of children in adolescence and emerging/young adulthood. This study examines two broad research questions: (1) How do mothers articulate the stress suffered due to their children's experiences of anti-Black racism? (2) How are mothers perceiving this stress shaping their mental, emotional, and physical well-being? Method Specifically, because of the interconnected nature of mother–child relationships, vicarious racism is a pathway for Black maternal stress. Racism is a system of inequality impeding the health and well-being of Black families.
