Although the opinions of whites on issues of race and inequality
have been examined in depth, the perceptions of blacks about these
issues have been largely ignored. This book is a path-breaking
analysis of black opinions about the sources of their inequality in
American society and the appropriate means for redressing this
imbalance. Using the results of a variety of national surveys of
blacks conducted during the past decade, Sigelman and Welch
describe the range of opinion within the black population and
account for different views by identifying key influences on
opinion formation. They examine correlations among various personal
characteristics, such as gender, age, socio-economic status, and
educational attainment, and different explanations of inequality,
focusing either on conditions within the black community or on
exogenous factors, such as discrimination.
