Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: Since the passage of the Voting Rights Act, scholars have long been interested in the candidate vote choice of minority voters. In particular, scholars have paid attention to the significant role that group consciousness can play in explaining the political behavior of minority groups. Although group consciousness has been especially important in understanding Black political participation can the Black model be similarly applied to minority groups from Asia and Latin America? Since Asian American and Latino experiences are distinctly different from that has been historically witnessed by Blacks, this study contends that the development of group consciousness and racial group attachment functions differently for these two immigrant groups. In developing a comparative minority framework, this paper proposes a theory of racial contradiction, the idea that each minority group is governed by different frames of racialization which require distinct models for measuring racial group attachment. To test our theory, we focus on the Asian American case. Due to the persistent framing of Asian Americans as foreign outsiders, we contend that the key determinants of racial group attachment are racial discrimination and generational status. Using the Survey of Asians in the Bay Area, we conduct exploratory analyses on the impact of discrimination and immigration on racial attachment by focusing on Asian Americans’ preference for descriptive representation.
