Synopsis
Seventeen American academics and researchers contribute 12 chapters assessing wealth accumulation among people of color. Coverage includes a discussion of data sources and measurement issues from the perspective of race; wealth inequality and its measurement from the perspective of intragroup inequality within White, African American, and Latino communities and across gender; data about different racial and ethnic groups, particularly the groups least analyzed--Native Americans, Native Hawaiians, Asian Americans--focusing on ownership of specific assets such as housing, land, business, and pensions; and analyses of wealth's effects on communities.
