“As the political debate over illegal immigration continues, a West Virginia University political scientist has co-authored a study showing one effect of the rising Latino populations in the United States – increased stereotypes.
Thomas J. Scotto’s study, “Racial Distancing in a Southern City: Latino Immigrants’ Views of Black Americans,” will appear in the August issue of the Journal of Politics. In it he suggests that the influx of immigration to the South has sparked an increase in racial tension, particularly between Latinos and blacks.
While previous research has reported findings on interactions between whites and minorities, research on interminority group issues of prejudice and stereotyping is limited, making this study of particular interest.”
