--    Welcome to the **Research at a Glance** repository. This section serves as a **centralized reference hub** for key academic studies related to various important Racial themes. Each study is categorized for easy navigation and presented in a **collapsible format** to maintain a clean layout. I wanted to make this for a couple of reasons. Number one is organization. There are a ton of useful studies out there that expose the truth, sometimes inadvertently. You'll notice that in this initial draft the summaries are often woke and reflect the bias of the AI writing them as well as the researchers politically correct conclusion in most cases. That's because I haven't gotten to going through and pointing out the reasons I put all of them in here.

      There is often an underlying hypocrisy or double standard, saying the quiet part out loud, or conclusions that are so much of an antithesis to what the data shows that made me want to include it. At least, thats the idea for once its polished. I have about 150 more studies to upload, so it will be a few weeks before I get through it all. Until such time, feel free to search for them yourself and edit in what you find, or add your own studies. If you like you can do it manually, or if you'd rather go the route I did, just rename the study to its doi number and feed the study into an AI and tell them to summarize the study using the following format:

 . **General Observations:**
--   - Based on **47 athlete interviews**, cherry-picked from non-revenue Division I sports.
--   - The study claims **“segregation”**, but presents no evidence of actual exclusion or policy bias — just demographic imbalance.
++   - Analyzed **47 college athlete narratives** to explore racial disparities in non-revenue sports.
++   - Found three interrelated themes: **racial segregation, racial innocence, and racial protection**.
 . **Subgroup Analysis:**
--   - Attributes **White participation** in certain sports to "systemic racism", ignoring **self-selection, geography, and cultural affinity**.
--   - Claims White athletes are “protected” from race discussions — but never engages with **Black overrepresentation in revenue sports**.
++   - **Predominantly white sports programs** reinforce racial hierarchies in college athletics.
++   - **Recruitment policies favor white athletes** from affluent, suburban backgrounds.
 . **Other Significant Data Points:**
--   - White athletes are portrayed as **ignorant of their privilege**, a claim drawn entirely from CRT frameworks rather than behavior or outcome.
--   - **No empirical data** is offered on policy, scholarship distribution, or team selection criteria.
++   - White athletes are **socialized to remain unaware of racial privilege** in their athletic careers.
++   - Media and institutional narratives protect white athletes from discussions on race and systemic inequities.

  {{expandable summary="🔬 Findings"}}
 . **Primary Observations:**
--   - Frames **normal demographic patterns** (e.g., majority-White rosters in tennis or rowing) as "institutional whiteness".
--   - **Ignores the structural dominance** of Black athletes in high-profile revenue sports like football and basketball.
++   - Colleges **actively recruit white athletes** from majority-white communities.
++   - Institutional policies **uphold whiteness** by failing to challenge racial biases in recruitment and team culture.
 . **Subgroup Trends:**
--   - White athletes are criticized for **lacking racial awareness**, reinforcing the moral framing of **Whiteness as inherently problematic**.
--   - **Cultural preference, individual merit, and athletic subculture** are all excluded from consideration.
++   - **White athletes show limited awareness** of their racial advantage in sports.
++   - **Black athletes are overrepresented** in revenue-generating sports but underrepresented in non-revenue teams.
 . **Specific Case Analysis:**
--   - Argues that college sports **reinforce racial hierarchy** without ever showing how White athletes benefit more than Black athletes.
--   - Offers **no comparative analysis** of scholarships, graduation rates, or media portrayal by race.
++   - Examines **how sports serve as a mechanism for maintaining racial privilege** in higher education.
++   - Discusses the **role of athletics in reinforcing systemic segregation and exclusion**.

--   - Shows how **academic literature systematically avoids symmetrical analysis** when outcomes favor White participants.
++   - **Comprehensive qualitative analysis** of race in college sports.
++   - Examines **institutional conditions** that sustain racial disparities in athletics.
 . **Limitations of the Study:**
--   - **Excludes revenue sports**, where Black athletes dominate by numbers, prestige, and compensation.
--   - **Fails to explain** how team composition emerges from voluntary participation, geography, or subcultural identity.
--   - Treats **racial imbalance as proof of racism**, bypassing merit, interest, or socioeconomic context.
++   - Focuses primarily on **Division I non-revenue sports**, limiting generalizability to other divisions.
++   - Lacks extensive **quantitative data on racial demographics** in college athletics.
 . **Suggestions for Improvement:**
--   - Include **White athlete perspectives** without pre-framing them as racially naive or complicit.
--   - **Compare all sports**, including those where Black athletes thrive and lead.
--   - Remove CRT framing and **evaluate outcomes empirically**, not ideologically.
++   - Future research should **compare recruitment policies across different sports and divisions**.

--
--{{expandable summary="📊 Key Statistics"}}
--
--**General Observations:**
--
--Meta-analysis of 74 studies conducted between 1955 and 2020 on racial representation in advertising.
--
--Sample included mostly White U.S. participants, with consistent tracking of their preferences.
--
--**Subgroup Analysis:**
--
--Found a steady increase in positive responses toward Black models/actors in ads by White viewers.
--
--Recent decades show equal or greater preference for Black faces compared to White ones.
--
--**Other Significant Data Points:**
--
--Study frames this shift as a positive move toward diversity, ignoring implications for displaced White cultural representation.
--
--No equivalent data was collected on Black or Hispanic attitudes toward White representation.
--{{/expandable}}
--
--{{expandable summary="🔬 Findings"}}
--
--**Primary Observations:**
--
--White Americans have become increasingly receptive or favorable toward Black figures in advertising, even over timeframes of widespread cultural change.
--
--These preferences held across product types, media formats, and ad genres.
--
--**Subgroup Trends:**
--
--Studies from the 1960s–1980s showed preference for in-group racial representation, which has dropped sharply for Whites in recent decades.
--
--The largest positive attitudinal shift occurred between 1995–2020, coinciding with major DEI and cultural programming trends.
--
--**Specific Case Analysis:**
--
--The authors position this as “progress,” but offer no critical reflection on the effects of displacing White imagery from national advertising narratives.
--
--Completely omits consumer preference studies in countries outside the U.S., especially in more homogeneous nations.
--{{/expandable}}
--
--{{expandable summary="📝 Critique & Observations"}}
--
--**Strengths of the Study:**
--
--Large-scale dataset across decades provides a clear empirical view of long-term trends.
--
--Useful as a benchmark of how White American preferences have evolved under sociocultural pressure.
--
--**Limitations of the Study:**
--
--Fails to ask whether increasing diversity is consumer-driven or culturally imposed.
--
--Ignores the potential alienation or displacement of White cultural identity from mainstream advertising.
--
--Assumes “diverse equals better” without testing economic or emotional impact of those shifts.
--
--**Suggestions for Improvement:**
--
--Include non-White viewer reactions to all-White or traditional American imagery for balance.
--
--Test whether consumers notice racial proportions or experience fatigue from overcorrection.
--
--Explore regional or class-based variance among White viewers, not just aggregate averages.
--{{/expandable}}
--
--{{expandable summary="📌 Relevance to Subproject"}}
--
--Demonstrates how White cultural imagery has been steadily replaced or downplayed in the public sphere.
--
--Useful for showing how marketing professionals and researchers frame White displacement as “progress.”
