The Continuing Significance of Race: Antiblack Discrimination in Public Places
Abstract
Much literature on contemporary U.S. racial relations tends to view black middle-class life as substantially free of traditional discrimination. Drawing primarily on 37 in-depth inter-views with black middle-class respondents in several cities, I analyze public accommoda-tions and other public-place discrimination. I focus on three aspects: (1) the sites of discrim-ination, (2) the character of discriminatory actions; and (3) the range of coping responses by blacks to discrimination. Documenting substantial barriers facing middle-class black Amer-icans today, I suggest the importance of the individual's and the group's accumulated discriminatory experiences for understanding the character and impact of modem racial discrimination.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
