SUMMARY:Sharon M. Guten Colloquium Series - Michael Kraus
DESCRIPTION:“The Narrative of Racial Progress” \nIn this talk\, I will provide a broad overview of our research on the narrative of racial progress—the tendency for Americans to believe in the linear\, automatic\, and even natural march forward to racial equity and justice. The talk will begin with an overall orientation to my research approach to inequality. From there\, I will describe the theoretical background of this narrative\, highlighting the psychological and structural drivers of the tendency to overestimate racial equality and progress toward achieving it. Along the way I will summarize the state of the evidence in support of racial progress beliefs. Having provided this summary\, I will conclude by discussing some of our emerging efforts to promote more realistic conceptions of racial inequality\, and how narratives of racial progress act as barriers to the actual achievement of racial equity. \n
