In the aftermath of the 2024 election, Black men were blamed for Democratic losses, yet the data show a different picture. While Black vote for the Democratic party at lower rates than Black women, their support remains higher than that of Latino, Asian, and white voters across gender.
Our recent research -- Even among the 92%, It’s Complicated: Examining Black Women Voters’ Emotions and Evaluations of Kamala Harris in the 2024 Election---- examines Black women’s perspectives during the 2024 election cycle through focus groups with politically engaged Black women.
Our paper explores how sexism, lack of intersectional solidarity, attitudes towards racial uplift, and culturally popular podcasts such as the Joe Budden Podcast can shed light on Black men's conservatism.
