OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Those who are ‘ideologically colour-blind’ do not express explicitly negative views of racial minorities but instead reject the argument that racial discrimination is a significant social problem (Bonilla-Silva 2003). In the UK, it has been shown that this ideology is as widespread among white voters as it is in the US, with previous research indicating that few racial minorities will subscribe to colour blindness.
In this seminar, Maria Sobolewska, Professor of Political Science, will present the design and findings of a study demonstrating that both white voters and voters of ethnic minority backgrounds can hold colour-blind views, and that these views shape their political attitudes in similar ways.
Maria will also examine how colour-blind attitudes correlate with political views and racial attitudes, and whether they predict discriminatory behaviour towards policies aimed at addressing racial inequality and political choice.
