Appointment of racial/ethnic minority directors: Ethnic matching or visibility threat?
2017, Social Science ResearchCitation Excerpt :Research on lynching patterns confirm this trend; lynchings occurred at much greater rates in locations where there was a higher concentration of Black residents (Tolnay et al., 1996). Evidence specific to labor market opportunities also supports this perspective (Cohen, 1998, 2001; Huffman and Cohen, 2004; Tomaskovic-Devey and Roscigno, 1996). Greater concentration of minorities in the local labor market increases the degree of racial/ethnic segregation (Huffman and Cohen, 2004).
