Make America Great! How Political Geography Shaped White Male Veterans’ Mental Health after the 2016 Presidential Election
This study draws on symbolic empowerment theory to examine the mental health significance of Donald Trump’s unexpected presidential election victory in fall 2016 for white male veterans. Some whites, including military veterans, gravitated toward Trump’s messaging of restoring traditional power structures and defending white masculine cultural and economic dominance. The authors hypothesized that white male veterans would experience improved ment…
Black Social Capital: How Black Adults’ Racial Capital Associates With Their Social Organization Membership
Social capital encompasses investment, use, and reciprocation of resources gained from social relations and networks for expected returns. Social capital accessed through membership in voluntary social associations, groups, and organizations has been vital to Black Americans’ struggle for equality and human rights. This study addresses whether racial capital (i.e., belief in the significance of systemic racism) associates with social capital amon…
Belief in Systemic Racism and Exposure to Institutional Inequality Among Black Adults: Investigating the Complexities of Black Leadership and Racial Equality
Systemic racism comprises anti-Black practices, white privilege, legacies of economic and other racial disparities, and an ideological frame whites create to rationalize their privilege. This study asks whether Black people’s belief in the significance of systemic racism (i.e. racial capital) associates with the perception Barack Obama’s 2008 presidential election showed Blacks now enjoy racial equality. It also asks whether exposure to instituti…
Critical Race Theory Speaks to the Sociology of Racial and Ethnic Minorities: Investigating Racial Realism and Its Correlates Among Black Adults
Racial realism is an ideological stance and a mind-set or philosophy substantiating the permanence of racism in U.S. society. It originates from critical race theory. It incriminates white supremacy. It eviscerates racial progress narratives. Yet racial realism simultaneously offers Blacks strategies to achieve fulfillment and even triumph. With nationally representative data from the 2008–2009 National Annenberg Election Study (NAES08-Online) pa…
Fight the Power? How Black Adults’ Racial Capital Associates With Their Political Activities
Systemic racism explains historical and contemporary anti-black exclusion, violence, and exploitation in the United States. Yet, Black people routinely resist systemic racism’s effects. This study asks whether racial capital (i.e., Blacks’ belief in the significance of systemic racism) associates positively with political activities. It also attempts to replicate previous findings showing educational attainment directly predicts political activit…
Wakanda forever! Consistency in correlates of black nationalist tendencies
Objective: This study investigates correlates of black nationalist tendencies , defined as endorsing sentiments consistent with black nationalism. Black nationalism is an ideology that advocates for cultural, economic, political, and social separatism, and/or community autonomy and self‐reliance as survival tactics. Warrant for this study arises from the opinion black nationalism is an anachronism—a throwback to the 1920s, late 1960s, or early 19…
Four More Years! or So What: The Mental Health Significance of Barack Obama’s 2012 Presidential Re-Election among Black Adults
This study investigated the mental health significance of Barack Obama's 2012 presidential re-election among Blacks. Upon his re-election, we hypothesized Blacks would either feel symbolic empowerment or relative deprivation. They would feel symbolic empowerment because a man who identifies as Black won re-election to the nation's highest office. His second victory should generate optimism, given his status as a historic first. Alternatively, the…
My Commander in Chief is Black! The Mental Health Significance of Barack Obama's 2008 Presidential Election for Military Veterans
This study investigated the mental health significance of Barack Obama's 2008 presidential election for military veterans. Many believed his election signaled a progressive shift in race relations and crucial challenge to White supremacy. Furthermore, many argued his election generated hope, especially among Blacks. We therefore hypothesized Black and Hispanic veterans would experience improved mental health after installment of the nation's firs…
Changes in Racial Apathy Among White Young Adults: A Five-YearNational Panel Study
This study investigates changes in racial apathy among white young adults using nationally representative panel survey data from the NSYR. Our regression models include social background, social values, and academic orientation variables specified as important correlates of racial apathy in prior cross-sectional studies. We also include interracial contact variables, which existing studies neglect. According to intergroup contact theory, interrac…
A Descriptive Study Using the Comprehensive Race Socialization Inventory: Findings From the National Survey of American Life-Adolescent Supplement
This study examines race socialization, defined as the process whereby individuals learn about the meaning and significance of race and racism. With data from the 2001–2004 National Survey of American Life-Adolescent Supplement (NSAL-A), we analyze responses to the Comprehensive Race Socialization Inventory (CRSI) among 1,170 African American and Caribbean Black adolescents between the ages of 13 and 17 years. The CRSI captures sources, frequency…
The Prevalence, Correlates, and Consequences of Racial Apathy Among Black Teenagers
Who Cares: Investigating Consistency in Expressions of Racial Apathy among Whites
Survey researchers theorize that how whites express racial prejudice changes across time. They argue one of its contemporary forms is racial apathy (i.e., not caring about racial equality). However, few empirical studies characterize racial apathy. To fill this gap, the present study addresses consistency in racial apathy across time at the population level and individual level. Using three waves of panel data (i.e., 2003, 2007-2008, and 2013) fr…
