We find that political crisis, protests and uprisings have a significant and negative nexus with economic growth while the nexus is positive with investment and price level. For economic growth, the deviation of the actual series from the counterfactual is negative, instantaneous, persistent and highly significant; indicating non-negligible costs of the shock. Indeed, dependence on natural resources amplifies the negative influence of political crisis, protests and uprisings on GDP. Finally, the more the treated country depends on natural resources, the more it becomes resilient to the investment losses caused by political crisis.","PeriodicalId":35867,"journal":{"name":"Review of Black Political Economy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43635934","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recent local and global movements and social media campaigns prove that these issues have not expired, on the contrary, discrimination based on gender and race exists, and in some parts of the world, it has even worsened. As important as those movements are, they are often looked from a narrow perspective. Gender rights are discussed from white women’s point of view, and racism is typically linked to black men. Developed by Afro-American female scholars, black feminism raises questions on the marginalised groups within marginalities. Some of the first publications on the topic were already written more than four decades ago, but black feminism has still stayed, ironically enough, in marginality. This article presents the main findings and arguments of two books that use black feminist theories in different contexts and fields of science. The more recently published of these books is To Exist is to Resist: Black Feminism in Europe (2019). Edited by Akwugo Emejulu and Francesca Sobande, the edited collection combines essays on black women’s actions and everyday struggles in different European countries. The second one is Caroline Shenaz Hossein’s Politicized Microfinance: Money, Power, and Violence in the Black Americas (2016). Discussing alternative finance in the African diaspora in the Caribbean, the book has already received some welldeserved attention in academia. Despite the differences in the form and the publication years, the books are comparable and contain some of the brilliant contributions to black feminist literature.

The school was the alma mater of at least two other distinguished African American economists – John Henry Dean (Ph.D. Harvard University, 1938) and Phyllis Wallace (Ph.D. Yale University 1948). The principal at the time, Dr. Mason Hawkins, had studied economics at Harvard and the University of Pennsylvania. Myers matriculated at Morgan College (later known as Morgan State University) in 1936, intending to major in chemistry. However, during his freshman year at Morgan, Myers joined his father on a semester-long voyage to Calcutta, working as a mess boy on a steamer ship. Struck by the abject poverty he observed among the Dalits of Calcutta, he eventually decided to devote his life to creating better public policies to eradicate economic inequalities. Since Morgan did not have an economics department then, Myers majored instead in social science. His passion for economic analysis, though, propelled him to apply to the graduate program in economics at Boston University, where many other Morgan graduates and faculty had trained. At Boston University, Myers studied under the economics department chair, Charles Phillips Huse, a 1907 graduate of Harvard’s Ph.D. program in economics and a specialist in consumer cooperatives. His master’s thesis, Consumer’s Cooperation: A Plan for the Negro (Myers, 1942), argued for the need for African Americans to embrace a cooperative system in opposition to market capitalism that","PeriodicalId":35867,"journal":{"name":"Review of Black Political Economy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87449604","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Researchers utilize data from the 2019 Survey of Consumer Finances (SCF) to estimate the parameters of logistic regression specifications to examine the factors that determine wealth accumulation for African Americans. Researchers found that African Americans were less likely to have low wealth if they owned their own homes and more likely to have low wealth if they did not save. Saving and homeownership had more of an impact on wealth accumulation for African Americans than for White Americans. Furthermore, African Americans who did not invest in the stock market were more likely to have low wealth, as investing also had more of an effect on wealth accumulation for White Americans than for African Americans.","PeriodicalId":35867,"journal":{"name":"Review of Black Political Economy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84887659","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using data on coordinators for every NFL season since the introduction of the Rooney Rule in 2003, the authors estimated several probit regressions to examine how various factors, including race, were correlated with a coordinator's probability of becoming a head coach. There was evidence that, all else equal, black coordinators who played in the NFL have been less likely to be promoted than similar non-black coordinators. Furthermore, there was evidence that black coordinators were significantly less likely to be promoted between 2018 and 2020. The analysis also suggested that a lack of black coordinators who played quarterback or tight-end in college as well as a lack of black coordinators with experience coaching the tight-end and wide-receiver positions in the NFL have contributed to the low number of black head-coaches. The authors also examine the specific case of Eric Bieniemy by using the empirical model to compare Bieniemy's probability of promotion with those of other relevant coaches. This analysis offers several potential explanations as to why Bieniemy has yet to receive a head-coaching opportunity.","PeriodicalId":35867,"journal":{"name":"Review of Black Political Economy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"65446090","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One of the concerns with the use of standards tests is the perverse incentive for teachers to alter test scores. The consequences for educators found cheating can be substantial, although little is known about how students are impacted by cheating. Using an 11-year panel of individual-level data on students and teachers from a predominantly Black urban school district where widespread test-score manipulation occurred, we investigated the impact of teacher cheating on subsequent student test scores. To access the impact, we used school-grade and classroom fixed effects as well as measure potential omitted variable bias (OVB). We found that for each additional wrong-to-right altered test question it is associated with a reduced future achievement of between 0.003 and 0.014 standard deviations depending on the specification. Although the evidence from OVB analysis does not suggest that test-score manipulation itself harmed or benefited students. Our evidence also contributes to a growing literature on the importance of sensitivity tests for OVB. We show how failure to conduct such tests could lead to erroneous findings.","PeriodicalId":35867,"journal":{"name":"Review of Black Political Economy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91134739","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
