Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: Can whites be encouraged to ease their hostility toward black political interests? Here, I present two studies of the impact of race neutrality on white racial-political attitudes. In the first study, based on some question wording experiments conducted in California, I look at white attitudes toward race neutral approaches to affirmative action. I find that race neutrality can be used to diminish white hostility toward black interests. I also find that the attachment to race neutrality is actually genuine, and not just the result of whites seeing race neutral "solutions" as setting up a context that whites will benefit from. In the second study, I look at attitudes toward affirmative action and racial profiling in New Jersey, again with question wording experiments. On affirmative action, a race neutral logic may damage minority interests; on racial profiling, a race neutral logic benefits minorities. I find that group competition considerations are harder to evoke on the latter issue than on the former issue.
