Engendering Racial Perceptions: An Intersectional Analysis of How Social Status Shapes Race Gender and Society 27,3 (June 2013): 319-344. Also: http://gas.sagepub.com/content/27/3/319.abstract Cohort(s): NLSY79 Publisher: Sage Publications Keyword(s): Gender Differences; Racial Differences; Racial Studies; Socioeconomic Status (SES); Stratification Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. Intersectionality emphasizes that race, class, and gender distinctions are inextricably intertwined, but fully interrogating the co-constitution of these axes of stratification has proven difficult to implement in large-scale quantitative analyses. We address this gap by exploring gender differences in how social status shapes race in the United States. Building on previous research showing that changes in the racial classifications of others are influenced by social status, we use longitudinal data to examine how differences in social class position might affect racial classification differently for women and men. In doing so, we provide further support for the claim that race, class, and gender are not independent axes of stratification; rather they intersect, creating dynamic feedback loops that maintain the complex structure of social inequality in the United States. |
