Intergroup relations research suggests that individuals perceive racial politics through a zero-sum framework, whereas scholarship on mobilization and social movements has shown the importance of cross-racial solidarity in effecting political change through coalition-building. We apply these two theoretical perspectives to the question of discrimination, asking whether perceptions or experiences with discrimination against one's own racial group lead to diminished (zero-sum) or heightened (coalition) beliefs that other racial groups also face discrimination. To do so, we use a dyadic approach, examining all possible relationships between four major ethnoracial groups in the United States. Analyzing nationally representative data from the 2020 American National Election Studies (ANES), we find evidence for the zero-sum framework for one of the dyads (White ⇔ Black) and evidence for the coalition framework within four of the dyads (Black ⇔ Hispanic, Hispanic ⇔ Asian, White ⇒ Asian, White ⇒ Hispanic). We also find that personal experiences with discrimination matter only for Whites' outgroup perceptions, whereas group experiences with discrimination are related to outgroup perceptions for ethnoracial minorities. Results demonstrate the power of the dyadic approach by revealing the asymmetry in these dynamics, highlighting the differing role of personal vs group discrimination for various ethnoracial groups, and illustrating the unique nature of anti-Black sentiment among Whites. These results have important implications for scholarship on race and ethnicity as well as political sociology. Our findings are also critical for informing efforts to mobilize and educate the broader public about issues of discrimination and racial injustice.

Winston-Salem, North Carolina, has a rich history of Civil Rights struggles and its people continue to resist racial oppression in systems of housing, labor, education, policing, transportation, and others. Dating to 1892, Winston-Salem State University (WSSU), a historically Black college/university (HBCU), has attracted students who have become organizers and activists in the fight for social justice in the local community. These include Theodosia Simpson, a leader of the radical Black women-led tobacco workers union; Carl Matthews, who started the first victorious lunch counter sit-in in North Carolina; and Dr. Larry Little, who co-founded the first official Black Panther Party chapter in the South. In that tradition, I have developed a “People’s History Tour of Winston-Salem” that takes current WSSU students outside the classroom to learn about the Civil Rights struggle at a variety of important sites. This critical pedagogy has students apply key sociological concepts that bolster their understanding of racial stratification and efforts to eradicate it. The goals of this assignment are for students to explore classroom curriculum about White supremacy, racial capitalism, and social movements at relevant historical and contemporary sites in Winston-Salem. By doing so, I aim for students to have transformative experiences that tie their readings and classroom discussions to the community spaces where that material comes alive.
北卡罗来纳州的温斯顿-塞勒姆有着丰富的民权斗争历史，这里的人们继续在住房、劳动、教育、治安、交通等系统中抵制种族压迫。温斯顿-塞勒姆州立大学（WSSU）是一所历史悠久的黑人学院/大学（HBCU），其历史可追溯到 1892 年，吸引了许多学生成为当地社区争取社会正义的组织者和活动家。其中包括西奥多西娅-辛普森（Theodosia Simpson），她是激进的黑人妇女领导的烟草工人工会的领导人；卡尔-马修斯（Carl Matthews），他在北卡罗来纳州发起了第一次胜利的午餐柜台静坐示威活动；拉里-利特尔博士（Dr. Larry Little），他与他人共同创建了黑豹党在南方的第一个正式分部。秉承这一传统，我开发了 "温斯顿-塞勒姆人民历史之旅"，带领西悉尼大学的在校学生走出课堂，在各种重要场所了解民权斗争。这种批判性教学法让学生运用关键的社会学概念，加强他们对种族分层和消除种族分层努力的理解。这项任务的目标是让学生在温斯顿-塞勒姆的相关历史和当代遗址中探索有关白人至上主义、种族资本主义和社会运动的课堂课程。通过这样做，我希望学生们能够获得变革性的体验，将他们的阅读和课堂讨论与社区空间结合起来，让这些材料变得生动活泼。

While university institutions have been legally codified as sites of free expression and academic autonomy, university administrations consistently repress student-led campus rebellion and activism against racism. With the resurgence of intersectional and transnational anti-racist and anti-war student activism across college campuses, how can sociology educators pedagogically invest in students’ desires to build anti-racist praxes within and beyond the university? Informed by experiences with mutually constructive grassroots spaces and undergraduate courses, I argue that educators of race, including but not limited to sociologists, must engage with grassroots and community organizers (especially organizers who are racially minoritized and queer, femme, and/or gender non-normative) and incorporate their learning tools for popular and political education. First, I use the example of “community agreements” to show how educators can incorporate political and popular education tools into their race courses to help their students build their anti-racist toolkits. Second, I discuss two examples of how educators can collaborate directly with working class and racially minoritized grassroots organizers and invite them into the classroom. I end with a call to support community-centered learning spaces beyond the university classroom, as it can strengthen anti-racist pedagogy. Despite academic and state repression, I highlight the long-held tradition and responsibility of educators to support their students’ anti-racist critiques and action. Continuing June Jordan’s anti-racist pedagogical legacy (along with others alike), the university can only survive through co-learning and co-building with students and grassroots organizers, especially racially minoritized ones.

The COVID-19 pandemic has had devastating health, economic, and social effects on people throughout American society. At the same time, racism spread alongside the virus. As China was blamed for COVID-19, Asian Americans became targets of prejudice and discrimination. In this study we document the racism experienced by Asian Americans during the pandemic and explore its link to mental health. Using the National Couples' Health and Time Study's Asian American oversample, we investigate the relationship between discrimination and COVID stress and mental health outcomes during the pandemic (anxiety, depression, and life satisfaction). We consider potential moderating variables (racial/ethnic identity centrality, community support, relationship satisfaction, and social support). We find among Asian American respondents, higher levels of reported discrimination and COVID-19 stress were associated with more depressive symptoms, anxiety and lower life satisfaction. Higher social support and relationship satisfaction were associated with better well-being, but we found little evidence of moderation. As we move beyond the pandemic, researchers should continue to document the persistence and variability of anti-Asian discrimination, its impacts on Asian American mental health and well-being, and potential protections and interventions.

The sociocultural norms of White spaces place Black individuals at greater risk of anti-Black racism, racial discrimination, exclusion, and violence. This reality requires that Black people develop sociocultural toolkits with strategies, behaviors, and knowledge to navigate and advance within society. Black parents play a critical role in readying their children for such survival and achievement in an unequal world. Existing scholarship on socialization focuses on Black parents raising preadolescent children, limiting our understanding of how Black parenting continues throughout emerging adulthood. Through the lens of college decision-making and the case of historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs), the author uses interviews with Black advantaged parents of college-bound children to explore understandings of the worlds children will enter as adults. Findings show that parents are aware of the burdens of Whiteness in its many forms in the environments where their children will enter and recognize that their children require sociocultural tools to succeed and thrive. These perspectives are made clear by parents’ discussions of the benefits and limitations of HBCU attendance. This article raises implications for understanding Black parenting, socialization, higher education, and transitions to adulthood and work.
