Discussion: Discriminatory Admissions Policies
NOW FOR AN ORIGINAL PAPER ASSIGNMENT:Discussion: Discriminatory Admissions Policies
Scholars such as Nathan Glazer (1997) thought the former would quickly lead to the full incorporation of blacks into American society. Supporters of the Hart-Celler Act generally did not expect it to generate much new immigration; rather, they thought it simply would remove the embarrass- ment of the country’s prior discriminatory admissions policies (Reimers 1998). The two laws thus both contributed to the prospect of improved racial and eth- nic relations in the United States. However, neither turned out as anticipated. Blacks did not quickly become economically incorporated, and millions of new Asian and Latino immigrants unexpectedly began to arrive to the country (Alba and Nee 2003; Bean et al. 2009; Foner 2000; Lee 2002; Skrentny 2001a). Many of them were considered nonwhite.

Now, nearly half a century after the passage of these watershed pieces of leg- islation, we are addressing two broad and interrelated questions: To what extent has the country’s contemporary immigration redefined race in America? Conversely, to what extent has the country’s prior experience with race influ- enced its perception of today’s nonwhite immigrants? To be sure, the United States is more racially and ethnically diverse now than at any other time since the early 1920s, and overt racial discrimination is now illegal, but to what degree have racial and ethnic relations, especially black-white relations, improved? If race is declining in significance, as many have claimed, is it declining equally for all nonwhite groups? Or is the cancer of racial discrimination that is the legacy of slavery so potent that it has metastasized to include America’s non- white immigrant newcomers?
Scholars line up on both sides of the issue. Some believe that the problem of race is beginning to fade and contend that even the gulf between blacks and whites is contracting. For example, Abigail and Stephan Thernstrom (1997), emphasizing the progress that has occurred over the past four decades, have suggested that the pernicious black-white color line is disappearing.
