Professor Seth K. Goldman has been named a visiting scholar for the 2024-2025 academic year by the Russell Sage Foundation. While in residence at RSF, scholars pursue research and writing projects that reflect the foundation's commitment to strengthening the social sciences and conducting research "for the improvement of social and living conditions in the United States."
Goldman will write a book exploring how people of color understand popular narratives about rising diversity since they will soon become the numerical majority in the U.S., while White people will become the numerical minority. The book will draw on a media content analysis and nationally representative panel survey with large samples of Asian, Black, Latino, Multiracial, and White Americans conducted by Goldman and an interdisciplinary team of researchers.
