Prove how race and intersectionality impact economic opportunity in a way that is underacknowledged.

Stratification economics are how intergroup disparities in economics can be studied with sociological and social-psychological concepts of racial bias. Rather than focus merely on human capital deficiencies, stratification economics recognize the differences in structural resources that account for economic inequality.

Critical race theory is a cross-disciplinary intellectual and social movement of civil-rights scholars and activists who seek to examine the intersection of race, society, and law in the United States and to challenge mainstream American liberal approaches to racial justice.

  • Prove the constraints of mainstream economics in consideration of critical race theory.
  • Conduct an analysis that challenges discourses trumpeting the emergence of a post-racial society in which previous barriers to attaining equal economic outcomes have been eliminated.
