Abstract: Internal colonialism & dual labor market theories are used to interpret race, gender, & educational class distributions of occupational prestige. By treating occupational prestige as the dependent variable, the author shows race & gender matters & demonstrates the interaction effect of educational achievement. The study uses data from a weighted 1% randomly selected sample of all high school graduates & higher of the Census Bureau Integrated Public Use Microdata (N = 140,847,881). Analysis of variance shows that each race & gender group means are statistically significant on the Duncan Socioeconomic Index. The author argues that these differences result in likely race, gender, & educational class conflicts.
