Social constructivist theories of race suggest no two measures of race will capture the same information, but the degree of \"error\" this creates for quantitative research on inequality is unclear. Using unique data from the General Social Survey, I find observed and self-reported measures of race yield substantively different results when used to explain income inequality in the United States. This occurs because inconsistent racial classification is correlated with other respondent characteristics such as immigrant generation, educational attainment and age.

Using the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health (or Add Health), a nationally representative sample of adolescents in 1994-1995, we examine if and how friendship activities differ among interracial, interethnic, and interethnic friendships of white, black, Hispanic, and Asian youths. We find that best friends are more likely than higher-order friends to be from the same ethnic group and that best friends report more shared activities during the past week than do their higher-order friendship counterparts. Hence, we argue that shared activities is a useful indicator of friendship intimacy. In general, interracial friends report fewer shared activities than do intraracial friends, although this difference is strongest for white respondents. Moreover, we find that white, Asian, and Hispanic youths all report fewer activities with their black friends. We find little difference in friendship activities between interethnic and intraethnic friendships. Our findings suggest that, even when youths manage to break racial boundaries in friendship selection, these friendships face greater challenges than do those between individuals of the same race.

A short story is presented.

Harris offers compelling criticism of Walker's view that all human beings have a natural disposition to seek freedom, yet ultimately provides Walkerite descriptions of slavery to warrant the slave's imperfect duty to struggle for freedom, for escaping servitude is a necessary condition for basic living.

In this study, we see two phenomena: a classroom where language, and language practices of African Americans in particular, are at the heart of and the support of writing development; and the accounts that writers provide of their own language practices-both inside and outside school-that result from intentional decisions and that show their awareness of and ability to move from one linguistic community to another-and back Our second article, Michael Bunn's \"Motivation and Connection: Teaching Reading (and Writing) in the Composition Classroom,\" takes up our neglected R: the role of reading in writing classrooms. Academically Adrift, which we reviewed last year, has exercised considerable influence, it's true, but it's hardly the only volume speaking to higher education, so to review that and fail to include others misrepresents views of higher education. [...]it's important to hear about other ideas, especially when they can be helpful, from our own colleagues playing various roles-faculty and administration-at various kinds of institutions.
