    In Amerika, Frankreich und Italien ist Percival Everett längst Kult. Nun liegt sein Western "God’s Country" auch auf Deutsch vor. Erzähler der Geschichte ist Jock Marder: Spieler, Trinker, Betrüger und Möchtegern-Frauenheld. 1871, Marder hat seinen Hof, seine Frau und seinen geliebten Hund wegen einer Bande von marodierenden Randalierern verloren, die sich als Indianer verkleidet hatten. Er sinnt auf Rache und ist gezwungen, den besten Fährtenleser um Hilfe zu bitten: den Afroamerikaner Bubba. Everett wirft das ungleiche Paar in einen Reigen skurriler und verstörender Szenen, bei denen sich Satire und Tragik meisterhaft ergänzen – Beckett wird ebenso Referenz erwiesen wie der Verwechslungskomödie, General Custer und Walt Whitman geben ein kurzes Gastspiel. Das berühmte Lachen bleibt dem Leser dabei meist im Halse stecken.Als einzige Lichtgestalt erscheint Bubba, der gesellschaftlich Geächtete, der letzte Repräsentant des Menschlichen, der Integrität. Das zugespitzte Ende trifft mit seltener emotionaler Wucht, weil der Leser sich trotz aller parodistischen Elemente stark mit dem schwarzen Helden identifiziert. Einem Helden, der in der gesetzlosen Gesellschaft kein Held ist, weil er qua Hautfarbe keiner sein kann. Everett gelingt es, das Genre, das aus Western-Filmen und Jugendlektüre vertraut scheint, auf den Kopf zu stellen. God’s Country ist eine grandiose exemplarische Geschichte über Außenseiter, Legenden und Sichtweisen, die den Leser zwingt, die eigene Haltung zu reflektieren.

    This paper studies the impact of the First Great Migration on children. We use the complete count 1940 Census to estimate selection-corrected place effects on education for children of Black migrants. On average, Black children gained 0.8 years of schooling (12 percent) by moving from the South to North. Many counties that had the strongest positive impacts on children during the 1940s offer relatively poor opportunities for Black youth today. Opportunities for Black children were greater in places with more schooling investment, stronger labor market opportunities for Black adults, more social capital, and less crime.

    We study differences in economic outcomes by perceived skin tone among African Americans using full-count U.S. decennial census data from the late-19th and early-20th centuries. Comparing children coded as "Black" or "Mulatto" by census enumerators and linking these children across population censuses, we first document large gaps in educational attainment and income among African Americans with darker and lighter perceived skin tones. To disentangle the drivers of these gaps, we identify all 36,329 families in which enumerators assigned same-gender siblings different Black/Mulatto classifications. Relative to sisters coded as Mulatto, sisters coded as Black had lower educational attainment, were less likely to marry, and had lower-earning, less-educated husbands. These patterns are consistent with more severe contemporaneous discrimination against African-American women with darker perceived skin tones. In contrast, we find similar educational attainment, marital outcomes, and incomes among differently-classified brothers. Men perceived as African Americans of any skin tone faced similar contemporaneous discrimination, consistent with the "one-drop" racial classification rule that grouped together individuals with any known Black ancestry. Lower incomes for African-American men perceived as having darker skin tone in the general population were driven by differences in opportunities and resources that varied across families, likely reflecting the impacts of historical or family-level discrimination

    We study how recent gentrification shocks impact Black and Hispanic neighborhoods, including where minority households move to after a shock and if the subsequent spatial distribution of households within a labor market area affects segregation. We first report that household moves from a given neighborhood are concentrated to a few destinations. For minority neighborhoods, destinations tend to have similar minority shares but are farther away from downtown. Those mobility patterns are partially explained by neighborhood networks. We then use Bartik-style labor market income shocks to show that gentrification has many effects. In Black neighborhoods, gentrification increases house prices and reduces the share of Black households while increasing the share of White households. For movers from Black neighborhoods, gentrification increases the share of movers going to top 1 and 2 destinations based on neighborhood networks and increases the share of households moving out of the MSA, but does not change the pattern of households moving to neighborhoods with similar Black shares that are farther away from downtown areas. Hispanic neighborhoods have negligible effects from gentrification. Finally, our model reveals that overall labor market area segregation decreases after a gentrification shock because highly Black neighborhoods become less segregated

    We use the 2020 Small Business Credit Survey to study the sources of racial disparities in use of the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP). Black-owned firms are 8.9 percentage points less likely than observably similar white-owned firms to receive PPP loans. About 55 percent of this take-up disparity is attributable to a disparity in application propensity, while the remainder is attributable to a disparity in approval rates. The finding in prior research that Black-owned PPP recipients are less likely than whiteowned recipients to borrow from banks and more likely to borrow from fintech lenders is driven entirely by application behavior. Conditional on applying for a PPP loan, Black-owned firms are 9.9 percentage points less likely than white-owned firms to apply to banks and 7.8 percentage points more likely to apply to fintechs. However, they face similar average approval disparities at banks (7.4 percentage points) and fintechs (8.4 percentage points). Sorting by Black-owned firms away from banks and towards fintechs is significantly stronger in more racially biased counties, and the bank approval disparity is also larger in more racially biased counties. We conclude that insofar as automation by fintechs reduces racial disparities in PPP take-up, it does so by mitigating disparities in loan application rates, not loan approval rates.

    This chapter reviews key literature studying the effects of wars on minority and underrepresented groups in U.S. labor markets in the 20th century. These labor markets, characterized by historically pervasive barriers to entry into certain occupations and industries, promotions, and fair pay for underrepresented workers, experienced severe challenges during times of war. These challenges served to break down some of the barriers faced by underrepresented workers. Recent years have shown that sudden labor shortages, similar to those induced by large-scale wars, are not a feature of the past. Hence, a better understanding of such shortages and their effects on different groups continues to be important. The focus here is on the labor market outcomes of Black and white women, as well as Black men, during and after the two World Wars. Their labor inputs compensated for the lack of white male workers during the war years; however, only WWII generated significant and more prolonged socioeconomic progress for both groups. This chapter summarizes theoretical considerations that can explain why some war-induced labor market shocks are persistent while others are not, and the empirical literature related to the labor market experiences of women and Black workers during and after the World Wars

    Wallace bleibt der Schwarze, egal, wie sehr er sich anstrengt. Er hat sich aus der Gewalt und Trostlosigkeit seiner Kindheit befreit. Jetzt promoviert er in Biochemie, als einziger Afroamerikaner in einer Universitätsstadt im Mittleren Westen. Doch wer von seinen Freunden kann ermessen, wie es sich anfühlt, der einzige schwarze Körper in einem weißen Raum zu sein? Schonungslos wendet Wallace sich gegen alles, was ihn in seinem alten Leben hält.

    Economists and other interested academics have committed significant time and effort to developing a set of circumstances under which an intelligent and circumspect form of racial profiling can serve as an effective tool in crime finding-the specific objective of finding criminal activity afoot. In turn, anti-profiling advocates tend to focus on the immediate efficacy of the practice, the morality of the practice, and/or the legality of the practice. However, the tenor of this opposition invites racial profiling proponents to develop more surgical profiling techniques to employ in crime finding. In the article, I review the literature on group distinction to discern its relevance to the practice and study of racial profiling. I argue that the costs of racial profiling extend beyond inefficient policing and the humiliation of law-abiding minority pedestrians and drivers. Racial profiling is simultaneously a process of perception and articulation of relative human characteristics (bo

    In Amerika, Frankreich und Italien ist Percival Everett längst Kult. Nun liegt sein Western „God’s Country“ auch auf Deutsch vor. Erzähler der Geschichte ist Jock Marder: Spieler, Trinker, Betrüger und Möchtegern-Frauenheld. 1871, Marder hat seinen Hof, seine Frau und seinen geliebten Hund wegen einer Bande von marodierenden Randalierern verloren, die sich als Indianer verkleidet hatten. Er sinnt auf Rache und ist gezwungen, den besten Fährtenleser um Hilfe zu bitten: den Afroamerikaner Bubba. Everett wirft das ungleiche Paar in einen Reigen skurriler und verstörender Szenen, bei denen sich Satire und Tragik meisterhaft ergänzen – Beckett wird ebenso Referenz erwiesen wie der Verwechslungskomödie, General Custer und Walt Whitman geben ein kurzes Gastspiel. Das berühmte Lachen bleibt dem Leser dabei meist im Halse stecken.Als einzige Lichtgestalt erscheint Bubba, der gesellschaftlich Geächtete, der letzte Repräsentant des Menschlichen, der Integrität. Das zugespitzte Ende trifft mit seltener emotionaler Wucht, weil der Leser sich trotz aller parodistischen Elemente stark mit dem schwarzen Helden identifiziert. Einem Helden, der in der gesetzlosen Gesellschaft kein Held ist, weil er qua Hautfarbe keiner sein kann. Everett gelingt es, das Genre, das aus Western-Filmen und Jugendlektüre vertraut scheint, auf den Kopf zu stellen. God’s Country ist eine grandiose exemplarische Geschichte über Außenseiter, Legenden und Sichtweisen, die den Leser zwingt, die eigene Haltung zu reflektieren
