Sisters, How Y’all Feel? Brothers, Y’all Alright?
Group identities and emotions shape how people experience politics. Groups provide cues about political participation and evaluations of policies and candidates. Although a burgeoning literature demonstrates that emotions matter for public opinion and decision-making, most research focuses on White Americans. When the emotions of people of color are examined, racial and ethnic groups are often studied separately rather than comparatively. We addr…
Introduction to Dialogues
What role might emotions play in Black public opinion and political decision-making? Extant literature in political psychology and Black politics provide us with incomplete answers to this question. While political psychology scholars have only recently begun to explore collective emotional experiences in the form of affective polarization, scholars of Black politics have largely relied on cognitive understandings of racial identity (i.e., linked…
Missing the mark? An exploration of targeted campaign advertising's effect on Black political engagement
Extant scholarship on campaign advertising focuses on the effectiveness of microtargeting for Latinxs, women, and religious groups, spending little time on the efficacy of advertisements targeted towards Black Americans. In this paper, we examine the ways in which racially targeted advertisements shape perceptions of candidates and the subsequent political mobilization of Blacks. Using a novel survey experiment with approximately 1,410 Black resp…
A Certain Type of Descriptive Representative? Understanding How the Skin Tone and Gender of Candidates Influences Black Politics
Although sociologists and psychologists have repeatedly demonstrated that colorism shapes how Black Americans evaluate members of their racial group, the literature on colorism in electoral politics remains curiously and ironically bereft of studies of Black Americans. We fill this lacuna in our article by asking how and in what ways might the skin tone and gender of Black candidates shape Blacks' vote intention along with perceptions of represen…
Family matters? Exploring media coverage of presidential candidates’ families by gender and race
Researchers have only recently begun to explore the role of parenthood and family in politics. While some scholars focus on the political attitudes of parents, others examine the advantages and disadvantages of politicians’ parental status on candidate viability. Building on the concept of politicized motherhood, we argue that focusing on candidates’ parental status alone provides an incomplete picture of the full range and symbolic functioning o…
Trends
Research on racial resentment has been meticulously developed, tested, and analyzed with white Americans in mind—yet black Americans have also responded to this battery for the past three decades. To date, little to nothing is known about the implications of responses to the racial resentment battery among black Americans. A burgeoning literature on blacks’ intragroup attitudes suggests that over time, black Americans have increasingly attributed…
Race, crime, and emotions
Experimental research on racial attitudes examines how Whites’ stereotypes of Black Americans shape their attitudes about the death penalty, violent crime, and other punitive measures. Marginally discussed in the race-to-crime literature are Blacks’ perceptions of retribution and justice. We fill this void by using an original survey experiment of 900 Black Americans to examine how exposure to intra- and- intergroup violent crime shapes their pol…

While I enjoy watching many students' attitudes towards policies or groups evolve, I can only hope that my students carry these lectures with them outside of the classroom and speak truth to power at home or in conversations both casual and in the workplace when they know something is not completely accurate or at least is misrepresented." "I left my first APSA meeting feeling exhausted. Since then, I've learned to do things differently, thereby …
Uncovering Reactions to the Racial Resentment Scale across the Racial Divide
Race remains at the forefront of the public agenda, and understanding how white and black Americans understand race relations and racial issues has become all the more critical. Amid the lively debate surrounding the meaning of the racial resentment scale, we utilize open-ended reactions from white and black Americans to identify the key themes that emerge from how both whites and blacks understand this canonical measure. Based on these reactions…
