“…Indeed, Masuoka (2006) suggested that the competitive work environments that are typically found among those with higher education could heighten awareness of the glass ceiling and related racial inequities. Notably, however, we did not find significant associations between income and linked fate, which contrasts with Wilkinson's (2015) finding that economically threatened Latinxs are more likely to identify with African Americans.…”

“…The integrative model suggests that social class variables (education, income) determine behavior, values, and perceived social positioning. Consistent with theoretical perspectives that have used class disparities and economic competition to explain barriers to cross-racial alliances (Chong & Junn, 2018;Wilkinson, 2015), lower education and income could hinder minority-linked fate, as Asians and Latinxs might view other minorities competitively. McClain et al (2009) indeed found that less-educated Latinxs report more negative perceptions of Blacks.…”

“…Although it is unclear why the following trend was not significant among Latinxs, coethnic-linked fate was higher among Asian Americans who lived with greater percentages of Asians. Perhaps Asians enclaves increase coethnic camaraderie and speak to the resilience derived from communities with same-ethnic others, as well as the historical legacy of settling in traditional immigrant-receiving sites (Portes & Rumbaut, 2006;Wilkinson, 2015).…”

Objective: Linked fate, or the degree to which individuals feel that their lives are tied to other group members' lives, can mobilize collective action and strengthen commonalities. Yet, linked fate remains underresearched, particularly among Asian Americans and Latinxs. Method: Using the 2016 Collaborative Multiracial Postelection Survey, the present study draws on García Coll et al.'s (1996) integrative model to examine associations between three domains of linked fate (immigrant, minority, coethnic) and demographic and structural factors (age, gender, nativity, education, income, language, skin color, neighborhood diversity, social stratification). Results: Education, discrimination, and feeling excluded are positively related to immigrant, minority, and coethnic-linked fate; age is negatively related. Income and nativity were not significant predictors. Conclusions: Implications for fostering linked fate and coalition building within and across Asians and Latinxs are discussed. Public Significance StatementGiven the current social climate, it is vital to determine ways to mobilize collective action and strengthen commonalities across racial/ethnic lines. This research focuses on understudied Asian Americans and Latinxs and shows that linked fate, or the degree to which individuals believe that their lives are connected to other immigrants, minorities, and coethnics, is generally higher among the young and educated. Social exclusion and discrimination promote linked fate, perhaps as a coping mechanism. Nuanced trends in light of other demographic and structural variables are also important to consider.

“…Insofar as political leaders and their constituents share an identity as PoC during decision-making, the specific minority subgroup that a leader hails from should, in principle, matter less as the logic of a common in-group suggests that any benefits of in-group favoritism will accrue to all groups sharing the category. Yet some work suggests that if subgroup identities, such as Black, Latinx, or Asian American, are more salient during such political decisionmaking, cooperative relations between these groups can become conflictual (McClain et al, 2007;Wilkinson, 2015).…”

Motivating Collective Action in Diverse Groups: Person of Color Identity, Prototypicality Perceptions, and Environmental Attitudes

People of color (PoC) face common threats as marginalized ethno-racial groups, yet it remains unclear what drives a diverse range of people to collectively mobilize. Relative to White Americans, PoC are disproportionately endangered by environmental pollution. We suggest that when facing common threats, such as environmental injustice, making salient PoC-Identity (PoC-ID)—a superordinate category encompassing non-White groups—may motivate its members to collectively act. In a study with nationally representative samples of Black, Latinx, and Asian Americans ( N = 1,866), we found that higher levels of PoC-ID predicted attitudes and behavioral intentions to confront environmental injustices, which were mediated by anger about environmental injustices and efficacy as PoC. Although PoC-ID consistently explained Black Americans’ attitudes and behavioral intentions, its influence among Latinx and Asian Americans was moderated by self-perceived prototypicality as PoC. We discuss how these findings advance understanding of the psychological mechanisms of coalition-building among marginalized groups.

Recent work suggests that solidarity between people of color (PoC) is triggered when a minoritized ingroup believes they are discriminated similarly to another outgroup based on their alleged foreignness or inferiority. Heightened solidarity then boosts support for policies that benefit minoritized outgroups who are not one’s own. Available experiments on this pathway vary by participants (e.g., Asian, Black, Middle Eastern, and Latino adults), manipulations (similar discrimination as foreign vs. inferior), and pro-outgroup outcomes (support for undocumented immigrants, Black Lives Matter). We report a pre-registered mini meta-analysis of this solidarity mechanism. Across five experiments (N = 3,252), similar discrimination as foreign or inferior reliably triggers solidarity between PoC, which then substantially increases support for pro-outgroup policies. This mediated pathway is robust to possible confounding and emerges across studies and planned contrasts of them. We discuss what the viability of this mechanism implies for further theoretic and empirical innovations in a racially diversifying polity.
