Title: Wage Disparities Among and Between Afro-Latinxs and Non-Black Latinxs

Citation Type: Dissertation/Thesis

Publication Year: 2022

Abstract: Race in America is defined through the duality of Black and White, but there are subgroups of Black people demanding attention in microeconomic study. Black Hispanics, also known as Afro-Latinxs, are a Black minority group in the United States which also share a similar experience as Black Non-Hispanics or Afro-Americans. Afro-Latinxs exist within an intersectionality that combines two minority identities: Black and Hispanic. Economic literature has shown that race has created wage disparities among people based on varying forms of discrimination. Although there is substantial evidence revealing wage disparities among difference races and ethnicities, there is little known about wage disparities in groups of a specific combination of race and ethnicity such as Black Hispanics. In my thesis, I will research labor markets to explore wage disparities that may exists among Black and Non-Black Americans and Black and Non-Black Hispanics to reveal any racial discrimination.
