ABSTRACT
The impact of racism on teens of color can be life-altering. Young people of color are still susceptible to the effects of racial discrimination so long as racism exists. Today's boundless access to social media has created a platform for exposing racist acts. Racism today presents itself in such forms as microaggressions, racial biases, and systemic oppression by means of policing, healthcare, housing, and education. This chapter explores those options through the framework of race-related trauma. Throughout adolescence, the formation of identity can predict either a successful sense of identity or a fall into a role of confusion. The healthy development of racial identity for an adolescent of color is essential and is not separate from identity formation. The COVID-19 pandemic has revealed the extent of racism in healthcare, economic, and living disparities. Advancements in digital technology present opportunities for autonomy in the music creation process for adolescents. This makes therapeutic songwriting a powerful intervention, as it addresses these ideals. Music therapy provides the opportunity to practice an uncommon form of cultural humility and rapport.
