In particular, we attend to the degree to which color and racial category inequality operate independently of parental socioeconomic status. We find a variety of patterns of racial category and color inequality, but that in most countries accounting for maternal education changes our coefficients by 5% or less. Overall, we argue that several posited divergences in ethnoracial stratification processes in the United States, compared with Latin America, might be overstated. We conclude that the comparison of the effects of multiple ethnoracial markers, such as color and racial categories, for the analysis of social stratification holds substantial promise for untangling the complexities of \u201crace\u201d across the Americas.<\/p>\n<p>Read or purchase the article <a href=\"http:\/\/abs.sagepub.com\/content\/60\/4\/538.full.pdf+html\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Interrogating Race: Color, Racial Categories, and Class Across the Americas American Behavioral Scientist Volume 60, Number 4 (April 2016) pages 538-555 DOI: 10.1177\/0002764215613400 Stanley R.
