What About Disillusionment? Exploring the Pathways to Black Nationalism

Abstract: Political scientists devote little attention to the attitudinal consequences of Blacks' disillusionment with racial progress in America. This oversight undermines our understanding of the antecedents of support for the ideology of Black nationalism. I hypothesize that disillusionment and linked fate interact to influence Black nationalism: the stronger one's disillusionment, the greater her adherence to this ideology, and the weaker the impact of her linked fate on her expression of nationalism.

“…Thus, this final section explores the moderating effect, if any, that Kaepernick may have on the relationship between BLM identity and political action. To examine whether attitudes toward Kaepernick moderate the power of BLM identity, we constructed an interaction term and added it to our previous model specification (see, e.g., Block 2011).…”

“…For example, one study finds that blacks who are angry about racial injustice are more likely to support community nationalism, donate to indigenous black organizations, and engage in protest actions (Banks, White, and McKenzie 2018). Other studies find that racial disillusionment and intense perceptions of racism and mistreatment are associated with black nationalist views (Block 2011;Davis and Brown 2002). Among those blacks supportive of nationalist views, political responses are less likely to focus on working within the existing system; Carey (2013) argues that nationalism leads to "distinct forms of political activity" while Davis and Brown (2002) find associations between intense perceptions of mistreatment and "less support for systemic means for combating perceived racial injustice.…”

“…Finally, in light of xenophobic rhetoric, we should observe stronger support for pro‐group politics, that is, policies that heighten ingroup pride. Scholarship on racial/ethnic politics suggests that segments of these communities sometimes respond to perceived hostility to their groups by supporting policies that culturally, economically, and politically celebrate and affirm the ingroup (Block ; Davis and Brown ; Garcia ; Márquez and Espino ). Generally, however, these types of policies are mildly supported by immigrant groups (Citrin et al ).…”
