Abstract:

Faced with demographic change, many colleges are offering courses on race and ethnicity. How does taking race-centered courses affect public opinion? We theorize that while White, Latino, and Asian American students develop inclusive political attitudes through race-centered coursework, Black Americans may already enter college with a deeper understanding about racial issues. We test these expectations using two longitudinal multi-racial datasets. First, using a national panel survey of college students, we find that ethnic studies coursework is associated with increased recognition of racial discrimination among Whites, Latinos, and even Black Americans. Second, using an original panel survey from a public university, we find reduced racial resentment and increased affirmative action support - albeit varied - among Whites, Latinos, and Asian Americans after completing race-centered political science classes but not in placebo politics classes that were not focused on race. Our findings have implications for conversations about race-centered coursework in higher education.
