Uncovering Race: Afro-Latinos, Political Attitudes, and Anti-Blackness

Race is an essential variable in the study of Latino politics, but previous scholarship on political attitudes, group consciousness, and experiences with discrimination have assessed Black and Latino groups separately. Clealand will examine Blackness within the racially heterogeneous Latino community and the ways experience is tied to Black political consciousness. She will examine the ways race and ethnicity overlap in complex, fluid, and seldom recognized ways.
