Why did you delete Ethan Klein from this page?

Maybe we can compromise. Please tell me your sorrows. NessThePSIKid (talk) 21:04, 5 September 2017 (UTC)

It did not have any reliable sources and is unrelated to the concept of internalized racism. — nihlus kryik  (talk) 21:09, 5 September 2017 (UTC)

Proposed Revisions

I am interested in expanding this page to include more discussion about the psychological effects of internalized racism. It would also benefit this page to discuss more than perceptions of beauty in terms of the way that internalized racism can manifest. Specifically, I would discuss the relation of internalized racism to stereotype threat (and subsequent testing performance, for example).

An article that discusses these points is “A review and meta-analysis of age-based stereotype threat: Negative stereotypes, not facts, do the damage” by Ruth A. Lamont, Hannah J. Swift, and Dominic Abrams. This example of stereotype threat shows a measurable effect of internalized racism and why it is harmful.

I'd be happy to hear any other suggestions or thoughts but this is my initial interest.

Update

I have done a little more initial research and I want to change the organization of the article to have a section on manifestations of internalized racism, then significant regional examples throughout the world, its implications and responses to internalized racism. For more details on my proposed changes you can see my sandbox.

Peer Review Comments #1

Hi @Hoopsf:, really great work on making the article have a widespread overview of the topic and using a concise and straightforward writing style to convey information throughout the article! I especially liked how you included measurements of internalized racism under the "Terminology and Classification" section; this provides the quantitative methods researchers used in their studies in internalized racism. Suggestions for improvement include adding more citations throughout the article and more examples under "Implications" and "Responses". I think the most important thing to improve on is providing more examples to broaden the scope of the topic and to provide different avenues of further research that the reader can explore.Prisci8 (talk) 00:51, 25 October 2018 (UTC)

Peer Review Comments #2

You did such a great job revising this article, Hope! I really enjoyed reading it and felt like I learned a lot, especially from all of the sections that were not present before. I think that the different psychological references are genuinely interesting, the writing is extremely clear, and the organization and neutrality seem carefully thought out. The main thing I would focus on improving is adding some more explanation and content to sections such as Dimensions, Measures, and Health, and there are some parts that could use more than one source or just one (which I mentioned in my rubric). This way, readers will have more validation for the information and will also be able to more fully understand certain concepts. In addition, 1-2 images may be a nice addition to the article. Can’t wait to see the finished product! Sachi Paul (talk) 03:01, 25 October 2018 (UTC)

Moving some page elements

I am moving some of the content that I did not contribute to fit the organizational structure I planned for the page. Please let me know if there are any problems with this. Hoopsf (talk) 15:50, 10 November 2018 (UTC)

Internalised homophobia?

Seems like this page should at least mention internalised homophobia as another example of the same basic phenomenon. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.139.203.181 (talk) 10:48, 25 September 2019 (UTC)

New Article Connection

I am planning on creating a new article, White Supremacy in United States School Curriculum, and I am interested in linking it in this article, since internalized racism is one of the major biproducts of white supremacist narratives in education. I am wondering if I can expand the discussion (that may have been edited already) about how whitewashed curriculum affects minority students. Does anyone have any suggestions? I also have more info about the new article on my user page if anyone's interested. --MBJAnderson (talk) 04:54, 30 September 2020 (UTC)

Adding to Stereotype Threat

Hello, I wanted to expand the stereotype threat section of the article, by adding more information about ways to fix stereotype threat in the classroom. This is my first time adding to an article, so see fit to comment back to let me know if something needs to be change to the revisions or if I did it incorrectly. This is the article used for this additon to the article https://commons.vccs.edu/inquiry/vol23/iss1/6/ MedLife4 (talk) 19:57, 3 July 2021 (UTC)

This is my addition to the article:  Todd Platts and Kim Hoosier professors of sociology at Piedmont Virginia Community College examined ways to reduce stereotype threats in the classroom. These ways include task reframing, by implementing a change in the grading system, that will keep students anonymous by assigning students a number or a codename, to eliminate known or unknown biases that the instructor might have, positive affirmation, recognizing positive traits students possess to enhance self-worth and ambitions, constructive feedback, by providing feedback in areas that students are struggling in and how they can improve the in those areas. Platts and Hoosier also stated that stereotype threat needs to be faced head on, needs to be discussed early in the semester, along with expectations of the students and the time should be spent reviewing material, that way students known that it is achievable to pass the class.

Adding to In Education

Hello, I wanted to expand the in-education section by adding what minority students face in the classroom. See fit to comment back to me and let me know if the revisions that I added needs to be changed or if it seems not to be a right fit for this section. This is the article I used for the addition to the article https://journals.lww.com/academicmedicine/Fulltext/2021/02000/Admissions_Is_Not_Enough__The_Racial_Achievement.27.aspx 

This is what I plan on adding to the article: Racial disparities projected onto minority students can lead to a decline in their academic performance that can, in turn, affect students throughout their academic career. MedLife4 (talk) 02:10, 11 July 2021 (UTC)

Sociologists?

The whole topic seems to be defined by sociologists. There is a reason why this is not recognized by epigeneticists, biologists and medical scientists, and the reason is that the topic and the "thesis" it supposedly bases upon is an unscientific sociologist postulate which is not based on science. 2003:C0:DF03:EC00:50D0:83AA:8D5F:18D (talk) 09:09, 11 November 2023 (UTC)
