Why do blacks have smaller social networks than whites? The mechanism of racial identity strength
This manuscript develops a theoretical view of racial identity as a variable symbolic resource and uses that approach to explain a rarely addressed finding within the social network literature - why whites have larger social networks and more weak ties than do blacks. Regression modelling of General Social Survey data reveals that the variability of racial identity at the individual and category levels provides a mechanism for explaining the raci…
Transnational connections: The meaning of global culture in the tastes of Brazilian elites
Blackness and experience in omnivorous cultural consumption: Evidence from the tourism of capoeira in Salvador, Brazil
Finding 'strong' and 'soft' racial meanings in cultural taste patterns in Brazil
This study advances literature on the role of cultural tastes in racial identity and work on race in Brazil.

Using correspondence analysis, I identify taste clusters and then compare these patterns across three racial classification schemas in Brazil. Across all schemas, there i…
Becoming a Capoeirista: A Situational Approach to Interpreting a Foreign Cultural Good

Participant observation data reveal that neither students' personal motives as consumers nor broad 'America…
