DESCRIPTORS Blacks; Middle Class; Poverty; *Racial Differences; *Siblings; Social Mobility; *Socioeconomic Status; Whites ABSTRACT This study used data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth (comprised of three subsamples taken in 1979) to characterize the siblings of middle class and poor Blacks and Whites, testing for racial differences in the probability of having a sibling on the other side of the socioeconomic divide. In support of theories in the urban poverty literature about the social isolation of poor blacks, results found that African Americans were less likely than Whites to have siblings who crossed social lines in w'ays that were beneficial. Low-income African Americans were less likely to have a middle class sibling than were low-income Whites, and middle class African Americans were more likely than middle class Whites to have a low-income sibling. Therefore, low-income African Americans were less likely to have a sibling to turn to for help but more likely to have a sibling to turn to them for assistance if they were middle class. The study results suggest that racial differences in the composition of kin networks may indicate another dimension of racial stratification.

    INTRODUCTION TO SOCIOLOGY (Sociology 110) - Fall 2012 Tu/Th 11am - 12:20pm, Leverone Hall - Coon Auditorium Professor: Professor Mary Pattillo Office hours: Wednesdays 2-6pm, 5-111 Crowe Hall Phone: 847-491-3409 (Sociology), 847-491-2036 (AFAM) E-mail: [email protected] TAs: TBA COURSE DESCRIPTION: Sociology is the study of the individual in a range of social contexts – from dyads (parent-child, romantic partners, boss-employee, assailant-victim) to large and anonymous, but somehow coherent, groups (e.g., Germans, Asian-Americans, bisexuals, lawyers), to institutions that surround and envelop us (religion, capitalism, sexism). This course aims to awaken students’ sociological imagination by going beneath our common sense assumptions to ask: How do social relationships, contexts, institutions and organizations work and how do we actively or passively participate? What are the major trends in employment, crime, political party affiliation, and racial inequality? How does sociology help to understand concepts like power, passion, and popularity? At root, all of these things are “social constructions,” but as the early sociologist W.I. Thomas teaches us “If men [and women] define situations as real, they are real in their consequences.” This course uses theory, research, and real-world examples to explore all three parts of this postulate: our definitions, the situations, and their consequences. COURSE OBJECTIVES: At the end of the course, students should be able to: • Recognize unacknowledged social processes that underlie everyday phenomena • Recognize, define, and utilize sociological vocabulary (e.g., stratification, correlation, reflexivity) • Define “social structure” and identify structural causes of social patterns • Apply your sociological imagination to generate questions about current and historical events EVALUATION: Grades will be based on a midterm (30%), research proposal (10%), paper (30%), and final (30%).
