Klappentext zu „New Blacks, New Whites, and the New Day “
Landmark legislation in the 1960's diversified and revitalized migration flows into the US by allowing previously excluded Asian and African peoples. Much has been made of the massive recent migrations from Latin America and Asia, but the presence of smaller Black African, Black Caribbean, and White European immigrant groups in the contemporary US provides for a unique natural experiment. By comparing the achievements of the latter three groups and their US-born children, we can assess the impact of US racial dynamics on Black and White peoples not saddled with the history and psychology of US racism. Are White immigrants the beneficiaries of unearned White privilege? Are Black immigrants subjected to segregation and exclusion? Are such advantages and disadvantages more or less pronounced as the US-born children of these immigrants reach adulthood? In short, to what extent is the US willing or able to incorporate Black people into its social fabric in the wake of the Civil Rights Movement? These and other pressing questions are systematically addressed in this book.
