“…McAdam, 1988); everyday struggles and talk (Frederick, 2003;Harris-Lacewell, 2004); and responses to racism-e.g., how middle class blacks find allies, downplay differences and denounce abuse (most importantly, Feagin (1991), Feagin and Sikes (1994), Anderson (1999), andLacy (2007)). Moreover, research that does not concern everyday anti-racism-for instance, studies of why and how African-Americans invest in education (Warikoo and Carter, 2009), engage in high culture (Banks, 2009), understand mobility (Young, 2004), conceptualize racial differences (Morning, 2009) and demarcate themselves from "ghetto blacks" (Pattillo-McCoy, 1999) informs our understanding of responses to stigmatization. In addition, Lamont and her coauthors have studied how stigmatized groups go about gaining recognition, considering 1) how elite African-Americans use religion and competence (Lamont and Fleming, 2005); 2) how black marketing specialists use consumption (Lamont and Molnár, 2002); 3) how minority workers in France and the United States use a wider range of types of evidence of racial equality than white workers (Lamont, 2000;Lamont and Aksartova, 2002); and 4) how North-African blue collar workers in France multiply strategies to establish their similarity and cultural compatibility with the French (Lamont, Morning and Mooney, 2002).…”
