Abstract:The current research tests Du Bois’ “double consciousness” thesis by employing positive and negative measures of black racial attitudes. Most importantly perhaps is that this research employs a variable that has traditionally been used to measure white resentment toward blacks, which the first author has labeled as “black intra-group resentment.” We hypothesize that respondents who possess high levels of intra-group resentment will be less likely to support progressive racial-policies. To the contrary, respondents who possess high levels of linked fate and black affect will be more likely to support progressive racial-policies. The data consist of 379 African American respondents primarily from Historically Black Universities. Using regression analyses, the findings reveal that a strong positive racial-identity among blacks bolsters support for progressive policies. In contrast, black intra-group resentment is found to reduce support for such policies. We conclude that intra-group resentment serves as a constraint for positive racial-identity, and also deem it to be a valid measure of negative racial identity as espoused by some blacks. |
