New study examines interracial marriage and cohabitation patterns among America's diverse black populations
By
Franklin Crawford
Breaking away from previous marriage and cohabitation studies that treated the U.S. black population as a monolithic culture, a new Cornell study finds significant variations in interracial marriage statistics among American-born blacks and black immigrants from the Caribbean and Africa.

Among the findings: Blacks born on the U.S. mainland (African-Americans) are more likely to cohabit with and marry whites than are newcomers from the West Indies, Africa and Puerto Rico, who are more likely to marry within their group or to marry African-Americans, although marriage rates between these two groups remain very low.

The study also found that there is a higher proportion of cohabitation among interracial couples relative to mixed race marriages, said Daniel T. Lichter, professor of policy analysis and management and director of the Bronfenbrenner Life Course Center at Cornell. "Nearly 10 percent of all cohabiting unions are between partners of different races."

The study, conducted with Christie Batson and Zhenchao Qian of Ohio State University, is published in the August issue of the Journal of Marriage and Family.

Among the study's other findings:

• A higher percentage of black cohabiting couples than married couples involve partners of different races or ethnic ancestries;
• Nearly 75 percent of interracial couples in which one partner is black involve a black man and white woman;
• African-Americans are more likely to pair with blacks born outside the United States than with whites.

The study is an effort to tease out discrete factors that influence "assimilation" -- a term often interpreted as pejorative -- of minority groups into the majority population. The recent increase in interracial unions presumably reflects positive changes in American race relations and a blurring of racial and ethnic boundaries and identities, Lichter said.

However, relying on data from the 2000 census, the primary goal of the study, he said, "is to acknowledge the diversity in America's black populations, while highlighting emerging patterns of marriage and cohabitation with whites as well as other black subpopulations."

Demographers and sociologists have always treated intermarriage between groups -- blacks and whites, or between whites of different ethnic backgrounds -- as evidence of a narrowing of "social distance" between groups, Lichter said. Quantifying these relationships is a useful way to summarize the extent to which minority or historically oppressed populations -- including new immigrants -- are being economically, geographically and politically incorporated into American society and to which racial boundaries are breaking down.

"A current question is whether the new black population -- from the West Indies and Africa -- will, over time, more strongly identify with the native-born African-American population or with the majority white population," Lichter said. "There also is a growing literature on ethnic antagonisms between native-born blacks and African-born immigrants. Hence our interest in intermarriage among diverse black populations -- intermarriage reveals important information on inter-group relations."

The importance of the study comes into sharper focus when viewed in a historical context. Miscegenation laws forbidding interracial marriage were not lifted nationwide until 1967, the study states. Even so, when it comes to marriage, the color line remains strong. Despite an increase in black-white marriages and cohabitation since 1967, African-Americans "remain much less likely than American Indians, Latinos and Asian-Americans to marry whites," Lichter said.

Skin color, then, remains a powerful and mitigating factor in America's marriage patterns.

obviously we're not gonna agree on which is more legit

That's a lie.

Hes right we really dont

Now if a chick we perusing ends up with a white dude

Then yea we get a lil ill feelings about that

The vast majority of mixed race people don't look black but mixed. When they have children with non black people they look the race of that non black parent. Check Blake Griffin for details. It takes one generation and your black genes are done.

Ur Wrong

Obama looks black
Drake looks black(with very light skin)
Diana ross son looks black
Jcole is mixed and dont even look it
Jus looks str8 up black

Alot mixed females i see look black


Blacks by far gave the most dominant genes

Whites have weakest

All of them are clearly mixed

They just look more black to you because usually, a mulatto can be accepted as black but not white

As far as features go, neither race is "dominant". Skin color and facial features get split down the middle although hair texture usually leans towards black. Dark hair and eyes are dominant but that goes for anyone, regardless of race.

And why is that

 

[Cave Savage]

And why is that

Because the standards for being accepted as white are stricter than for being accepted as black

Like how Rachel Dolezal was accepted as black (pre-exposal) even though she's 100% white in actuality

It's better being with a brother, rather than strapped up with C4, having to roll over in shyt and getting sodomized every night cause they use bath soap to wash up instead of just using water

Rachel dolezal was a white woman who looked black

And played into that character

She tricked people
Had nothing to do with being accepted

Im sure a black very lightskin chick with blonde hair could do the same

I actually have a cousin whos 100% black

And could pass for a white chick

And get as far as Ratchel without being found out? I doubt it lol.

 

[HookersandIceCream]

Henry got chucked in the bushes after just two seasons and was forced into early retirement , Toure forced out by that fraud Pep when he had just entered his peak years , Eto'o called a Barcelona great yet given away as a freebie in a swap deal @Klarifeye The Great

So much false information

Either you a White dude or an African that has not been in America for very long. There have been Black people who have been passing for White in this Country for hundreds of years. When I say passing for White; I mean they actually look like White people, with Gray/Blue/Hazel eyes; the whole nine yards. Hell those people have even married White people and have had children, but the spouses and in-laws never knew they were Black.. The only thing that ever gave those people away were their own family members.

How do you think that a White woman, Rachel Dolezal, could pass for a Black woman all of those years and no one even knew it until her family gave her away.

Now look at Lena Horne

You would not have known that Lena Horne was Black unless she told you.

Then why do whites accept Derek Jeter?
