- THE RISING BLACK ELITE: A MODEL AND AN ASSESSMENT OF CHANGE WITHIN THE BLACK MALE POPULATION FROM 1960 TO 1970.

The paper integrates the internal colonial model with the dual labor market perspective. Using data from the 1960 and 1970 Censuses, it assesses the impact of Civil Rights legislation on the education, income, and occupation distributions of black males. The findings are that the increase in blacks with college degrees has resulted in black males moving at a disproportionately high rate into upper level occupations such as professional, technical, management, and administrative occupations....

Using data from the 1960 and 1970 Censuses, it assesses the impact of Civil Rights legislation on the education, income, and occupation distributions of black males. The findings are that the increase in blacks with college degrees has resulted in black males moving at a disproportionately high rate into upper level occupations such as professional, technical, management, and administrative occupations. This may be contributing to the growing inequality of income among blacks that has been noted in the literature. It also supports the position that the benefits from Civil Rights legislation will be greatest for blacks who were already relatively well off.

Show moreThis phenomenological study examined the experiences of Black male alumni in higher education to gain an in-depth understanding of the aspects that facilitated or impeded their desire to persist to degree completion. This study situated the internal and external aspects that supported or inhibited Black male persistence. And, this study examined how Black male alumni navigate race and racism in higher education. Critical race theory (CRT) is used in this study to examine the lived experiences of Black male alumni at predominately white institutions (PWIs) in higher education. The focus on alumni aids in implementing an anti-deficit approach to highlight Black male success. Anti-deficit research rejects the perpetuation of at-risk research, which presents Black males as incapable of thought production, lazy, criminal and violent. Instead, an antideficit approach illuminates Black male academic achievement and is strategic in replicating success for future Black male collegians. This approach was deemed necessary to gain a deeper understanding of the experiences of Black male alumni at PWIs.

- IF YOU CAN’T MAKE A SOUND, MAKE A PEEP: A NARRATIVE INQUIRY OF THE LIVED COLLEGIATE EXPERIENCES OF BLACK MALE STUDENTS WHO DEALT WITH SUICIDE IDEATION.

- Abstract/Description
-
College students who have experienced mental health issues are at a higher risk for suicide and suicide ideation than students who do not suffer from mental health issues. Approximately 1,100 college students die by suicide in the U.S. annually (Furr et al., 2001; Taliaferro & Muehlenkamp, 2015). Although there are research studies that seek to investigate the phenomena of suicide and suicide ideation in college students, there is a lack of research that addresses the mental health concerns...
Show moreCollege students who have experienced mental health issues are at a higher risk for suicide and suicide ideation than students who do not suffer from mental health issues. Approximately 1,100 college students die by suicide in the U.S. annually (Furr et al., 2001; Taliaferro & Muehlenkamp, 2015). Although there are research studies that seek to investigate the phenomena of suicide and suicide ideation in college students, there is a lack of research that addresses the mental health concerns in Black male college students. Thus, the purpose of this narrative study was to expand the understanding of the lived experiences of Black male students who have dealt with suicide ideation while enrolled in college. The study asked two research questions: (1) How do Black male students who have experienced suicide ideation while in college perceive the impact of their suicide ideation on their collegiate academic and social journeys? And (2) How do Black male college students utilize university resources (counseling centers, campus-affiliated clergy), family, and peers after their suicide ideation experience, and what is their perception of these resources? The research focused not on the actual experience of suicide ideation itself, but the perceived impact of suicide ideation on Black male college students’ academic and social journeys. The academic journey includes the impact on students’ grade point averages (GPAs), impact on attendance, and desire to complete academic assignments. The social journey focuses on participation in extracurricular activities and relationships with faculty, staff, and peers.

Show moreIn this qualitative study, learning and engaging in leadership among Latino men college students enrolled at institutions of higher education were examined. The purpose of this narrative study was to explore the stories of how Latino men college students become leaders. Furthermore, this study aimed to understand how Latino men college students engaged in leadership and how they transferred their leadership knowledge between institutions of higher education and their home communities. A narrative design was used to study the stories and experiences (Clandinin, 2006; Connelly & Clandinin, 1990) of eight Latino men college students. Oral histories such as storytelling are a generational avenue within the Latin* community (Bordas, 2001; Delgado, 2002: Marrun, 2020; Rodriguez, 2011). Two semi-structured interviews were used to gather the data from the participants and data was analyzed using two cycles of coding. Lozano’s (2015) Latina/o Leadership Journey was used as the theoretical framework for this study to answer the three research questions focused on how Latino men college students became leaders, engaged in leadership, and transferred their leadership knowledge within their communities. There are three findings to this study that are focused on how Latino men college students become leaders, Latino men’s leadership engagement, and transferring leadership knowledge in different communities. The three findings had two to three themes that support the findings. Each of the findings address and answer the three research questions. Recommendations for policy, practice, and future research are also addressed to support the lived experiences of Latino men college students in their process to become leaders.

Show moreIn this qualitative study, spirituality, and leadership among 15 Black collegiate men enrolled at higher education institutions were examined. The purpose of this phenomenological study was to describe and explore the essence of spirituality within the lived experiences of undergraduate Black men student leaders. The objective was to understand the intersection of spirituality and leadership within Black men, and how it informed their decision making and influenced their career aspirations post their undergraduate collegiate experience. In this study, spirituality is defined as an “internal process of seeking personal authenticity, genuineness, and wholeness as an aspect of identity development” (Love & Talbot, 1999, p. 364). Guided by descriptive phenomenological methodology, four research questions were asked: (1) What is the meaning of spirituality for Black men student leaders? (2) How do Black men student leaders apply spirituality within their daily leadership practices and behaviors? (3) How do Black men student leaders define the connection between spirituality and leadership development? (4) How does spirituality inform the pathways and career aspirations of Black men student leaders? Four findings emerged as a result of the data analysis: (1) The Spirit and the Struggle: Spirituality Empowers Black Leadership, (2) The Spirit of Black Leadership is Service to Others, (3) Leading from Within: Spirituality is the “Backbone” of Black Men Leadership Identity, and (4) Spirituality Influences Black Men Career Aspirations.

This study investigates the diversity training industry that developed throughout the 1990's and continues to develop. Specifically, this analysis examines the resistance to diversity training that comes from the cultural group of white males. It seems that the way in which diversity training is communicated might cause part of this resistance.

Show moreThis study investigates the diversity training industry that developed throughout the 1990's and continues to develop. Specifically, this analysis examines the resistance to diversity training that comes from the cultural group of white males. It seems that the way in which diversity training is communicated might cause part of this resistance. The present study seeks to determine why a "white male backlash" exists and what reasons are given to account for the resistance. Thus, a rhetorical criticism using fantasy theme analysis is used. The essays/articles that are examined are mainly from news publications and trade journals but also include white males and diversity trainers. In examining articles that address the subject of the "white male backlash" nine themes are discovered which suggests that some white men construct a rhetorical vision of victimization in reference to diversity training: "Negative Feelings," "Targeted," "Uninformed," "Merit," "Blamed," "Stereotyped," "Must Change," "Uncertain Future" and "Other."

While he pretends to recount Willie Stark's career in an objective manner, Jack is actually burying his own guilt under this veneer of detachment. He must, in fact, assume much of the responsibility for the story's final tragedy. When he is unable to curtail his anguish by removing himself from the truth, however, he admits his responsibility. His penance takes the form of seeking reconciliation with people for whom he once felt a deep contempt--and when he forgives their frailty, he experiences forgiveness for his frailty. Jack is therefore able to continue on in hope. And so, like the Ancient Mariner, Jack experiences a measure of peace after telling his story.

Vonnegut abandons gender-specific roles to propose alternative methods of behavior through his creation of passive protagonists. These passive protagonists have a nurturing element and an ability to share their essence with others. This feminine nurturing element is seen by Vonnegut as a critical element essential for humanity's evolution and salvation. The passive protagonists examined are Eliot Rosewater in God Bless You Mr. Rosewater, Billy Pilgrim in Slaughterhouse-Five, and Rabo Karabekian in Bluebeard.

- OUT OF STYLE: HEGEMONIC CONSTRAINTS ON FAT MAN’S SELFPRESENTATION THROUGH FASHION.
- Creator
- Marques, Cassio, Backstrom, Laura, Florida Atlantic University, Department of Sociology, Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters
- Abstract/Description

Fashion has functioned to produce and maintain hegemonic discourses of beauty and size by privileging thin, white, upper-classed and heteronormative standards. While fatness opposes these expectations, past research has yet to fully account for fat men who take an active role in using fashion. Neither their purpose nor their reasoning for using fashion has been extensively detailed. I ask three questions: (1) Are fat men able to manage fat stigma through their engagement with fashion?

Show moreFashion has functioned to produce and maintain hegemonic discourses of beauty and size by privileging thin, white, upper-classed and heteronormative standards. While fatness opposes these expectations, past research has yet to fully account for fat men who take an active role in using fashion. Neither their purpose nor their reasoning for using fashion has been extensively detailed. I ask three questions: (1) Are fat men able to manage fat stigma through their engagement with fashion? (2) How do fat men use fashion as part of their presentation of self? (3) What role does intersectionality play as these men use fashion in their presentation of self and possibly in managing stigma? Using a content analysis of four hundred Instagram posts and twenty-two semi-structured interviews, I found that given fatness’s stigmatized position in fashion, men rely on their abilities to adhere to masculine standards in downplaying their fat identity. Furthermore, Black gay men’s hyper-marginalized position makes it more difficult for them to adhere to the same masculine standards. These findings show that the fashion industry actively prevents fat men from fully participating due to their size. Yet the way they use fashion is dictated by their ability to adhere to hegemonic masculine standards. Black gay men are most affected negatively as they have a hyper-marginalized status due to the intersection of their identities. As a result, popular accounts for “plus size” male fashion contribute to reproducing and reinforcing hegemonic standards of masculinity, and Black gay men who push boundaries in both gender and body presentation are left invisible.

Show moreThe present study examined the relationship between Action Identification and Homosexual Identity Formation. Specifically, it examines how homosexual male individuals view their actions differently when they are “in the closet” (not open about their sexual orientation) compared to being out today (open about their sexual orientation). Homosexual male participants (N=142) took an online survey containing the internalized Homophobia scale, Self-concept clarity scale, and general demographics questions and took the Behavioral Identification Form with an additional 20 items twice (BIF+). The participants were instructed first to answer the BIF+ as if they were in the closet and later took the same form as they are today, being comfortable with their sexual orientation. Using the original 25-item BIF, a paired t-test revealed a significant difference in the out-of-the-closet (M = .65, SD = .19) from the closeted (M = .60, SD =.21), t(141) = 3.3, p < .001. The effect size measured by Cohen’s d was d=.28, indicating a small effect. With the additional 20 items, a paired t-test for the BIF+ revealed a significant difference in the out-of-the-closet (M = .69, SD = .15) condition, compared to being closeted (M = .63, SD = .19), t(141) = 4.4, p<.001. The effect size, measured by Cohen’s d, was d=.37, indicating a small effect. These findings suggest that when homosexual men are closeted, they tend to view their actions at a lower level compared to when they are open about their sexual orientation.
