Mulattoes in colonial Maryland: The effects of colonial law on patterns of freedom and enslavement
Objective This study analyzes Maryland colonial law and empirically examines two sets of historical data to explore how legal codes affected the assignment of mulattoes (mixed‐descent persons) to the legal categories of freedom or enslavement. Maryland law was concerned with regulating the sexual relationships between people of European descent and people of African descent, especially when the relationship was between an enslaved African man and…
In Search of a Color Line: An Examination of Colonial Law in Virginia
This research examines laws in the colony of Virginia created by a powerful landowning planter class that attempted to draw a color line separating three descent groups: an indigenous native population (Indian), an immigrant population from Europe (English), and an imported population from Africa (Negro). Textual analysis of the Laws of Colonial Virginia shows that the English lawmakers had to learn they were the White component of a color line; …
Twenty‐First‐Century Trends in Black Migration to the U.S. South: Demographic and Subjective Predictors
Objective We examine (1) whether black migration trends from the final few decades of the 20th century continued during the first decade of the 21st century, (2) whether the black southern migration stream continues to be demographically distinctive, and (3) whether incorporating subjective/motivational factors into our models advances our understanding of race and interregional migration. Methods Using data from the 2000 to 2010 Current Populati…
“Call to Home?” Race, Region, and Migration to the U.S. South, 1970–2000 1
This research examines recent migration patterns of native‐born blacks and whites to the U.S. South. Our primary research questions concern race and regional migration dynamics, and whether new insights into such can be gleaned by comparing migrants to the South with persons moving within the non‐South. Using samples of 1970–2000 census data, we focus on race differences in the tendency to choose the South as a migration destination, and whether …
Who is Headed South? U.S. Migration Trends in Black and White, 1970-2000
This research examines inter-regional migration patterns in the United States by native-born whites and blacks over the final four decades of the 20th century. Our primary research question is whether regional changes in the United States have made the South a more favorable destination than it once was, especially for blacks. Using samples of census data from 1970 to 2000, we analyze white/black differences in primary (an original move) and retu…

Hurricane Katrina and New Orleanians' Sense of Place: "Return and Reconstitution or "Gone with the Wind
This paper explores some implications of Hurricane Katrina, especially as it affected, and will continue to affect, African Americans. Our observations stem largely from our ongoing examination of the demography of African Americans, including motivations to leave the South historically, and recent changes generating a significant "return migration" of African Americans to the South. The specific case of Katrina-related migration requires examini…
Return Migrations of African-Americans to the South: Reclaiming a Land of Promise, Going Home, or Both
Using samples of census data from the University of Minnesota Population Center's 'Integrated Public Use Microdata Series' (IPUMS), we describe trends in African-American migration to the South across recent decades, and explore the applicability of the concept of 'return migration' to various demographic patterns. Our findings suggest that the return movement contains multiple migration streams involving African-Americans of higher socio-economi…
Religion, Gender, and the Hispanic Experience in the United States: Catholic/Protestant Differences in Religious Involvement, Social Status, and Gender-Role Attitudes

Race, Region, and Religious Involvement: A Comparative Study of Whites and African Americans
This research examines (1) whether a comparative study of African Americans and whites in a nationwide sample hears out the widespread assumption of a distinctive African American religiosity (when region and other factors are controlled), and (2) whether any race differences provide support for the “semi-involuntary” interpretation of African American religious involvements. Using data from the 1974–94 General Social Surveys, we examine how a va…

Regional Patterns of African American Church Attendance: Revisiting the Semi-Involuntary Thesis
In this study we examine the thesis that the black church represents a semi-involuntary institution with patterns of attendance shaped by dynamics of segregation in the rural South. We replicate the analyses of Ellison and Sherkat (1995) — who found distinctive church participation patterns in the rural South — through an examination of church attendance in two nationally representative data sets (the General Social Surveys for 1972–94 and the 19…

The Relative Deprivation of Husbands in Dual-Earner Households
Evidence from a large national survey indicates that dual-earner men are satisfied with their work, marriages, and personal lives than single-earner men (conventional breadwinners). Dual-earner men report higher perceived well-being and marital satisfaction but lower work and personal satisfaction than dual-earner women. The differences between dual-earner and single-earner men are observed primarily among the young, highly educated, and occupati…
The Dualities of Careers and Families: New Integrations or New Polarizations
This paper examines the prevailing assumption that the dual-career family is the vanguard of new and more symmetrical forms of work and family integration. We argue that careers and families have been integrated in the past by a sex-role division of labor that compensated for men's career involvement with women's confinement to the home; that dual careers are a historically-specific variation of the “idle wife” pattern; and that careerism in the …
Family Structure and Educational Attainment: Sex Differences among Urban Blacks
This research evaluates the impact of family structure on the educational attainment of northern urban blacks. Separate analyses of male and female adults reveal little support for the traditional view that the “broken home” lowers the achievement of black males. Rather, we find it is black females, especially in segregated contexts, who have been most adversely affected by parental absence. These findings are interpreted as reflecting the differ…
Black Religion as Both Opiate and Inspiration of Civil Rights Militance: Putting Marx's Data to the Test
This research evaluates the claim of a general tension between religiosity and civil rights militance among black Americans through a secondary analysis of the 1964 Gary Marx data. It shows that when important secular factors are controlled, Marx's findings of (a) greater militance in largely white denominations (Episcopalian, Presbyterian, Congregationalist, and Roman Catholic), and (b) an inverse correlation between militance and both church at…
Race, Daughters and Father-Loss: Does Absence Make the Girl Grow Stronger
This research examines some of the consequences of father absence for female children within the existing framework of both sexual and racial stratification. An analysis of survey data collected by Morris Rosenberg and Roberta Simmons (1972) shows that father-loss has mixed implications for girls and a differing patterns of effects by race. Among whites, the absence of fathers appears to slightly weaken sex-role identification but “release” girls…

Race, Father Identification, and Achievement Orientation: The Subjective Side of the Father-Son Connection, A Research Note
Black Catholicism and the Spirit of Weber
This essay reviews the background of the relatively recent phenomenon of black Catholicism in America and the empirical studies which have explored possible connections between Catholic affiliation among blacks and their changing patterns of secular status. The problem addressed is whether the tendency for Catholicism to be associated with high socioeconomic status among black Americans can be interpreted as the operation of a religious factor in…

A Religious Factor in Secular Achievement among Blacks: The Case of Catholicism
This is a study of the relatively unexplored question of the relationship between religious affiliation and secular achievement among blacks. Examining a sample of urban black adolescents, the research sought Protestant-Catholic differences in attitudes toward achievement and black identity. The results indicate a distinctive secular orientation among black Catholics, combining higher educational and occupational aspirations and an attenuation of…
Race and the Father-Son Connection: The Conditional Relevance of Father Absence for the Orientations and Identities of Adolescent Boys
This study investigates how structural circumstances condition the meaning of the father-son connection and the effects of father absence. Examining a sample of white and black adolescents, the research sought father-present/father-absent differences in personal identity and orientation toward the conventional success goals of early adulthood. The results indicate that father absence has quite different consequences by race, with father absence b…
