From varying vantage points, this session considers how people simultaneously produce and reproduce themselves ethnically and racially as they build ethnoracial social landscapes. Between making residential choices, migrating, teaching in schools, adopting children, and hiring undocumented immigrants, these authors highlight how race and ethnicity is articulated and erected in the everyday. Challenging sociology's historical focus on communities of color as the sole racial beings, panelists consider the practices and systems that produce racial prestige and whiteness, and their impact on racial and ethnic relations.
