Changing Dimensions of Racial Identity in the Americas and Europe
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This panel presents current research projects that compare identity, race, religion and gender, within and across national boundaries in the Americas and Europe. NCOBPS is an excellent location for exploring this rich range of research, and for comparing empirical, theoretical, substantive and methodological findings across nations and regions. Important changes have occurred in the US, Brazil, the Americas and France in population demographics, in the meaning of gender, in the recognition of racial and ethnic identity, as well as in the increased complexity of religious practices. Bird and Franklin compare France and Brazil in order to develop theoretical explorations of discourse and policies shaping race, ethnicity and gender identities. Morris examines the politics of the major parties in France on race/ethnic integration within the context of debate about French national identity, and compares them with the U.S. Morrison and Oliveira document the development of the Black Parliament of the Americas in 2003, and assess its activities in reference to its original goals. Pinderhughes explores the effect of changes in a variety of socioeconomic and racial/ethnic diversity factors on US African American racial identity in the Age of Obama. Proposed Participants: Chair, Michael Dawson, University of Chicago Papers: • American Racial Identity in Transition?

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
