Drawing from a representative sample of over a thousand Black students and in-depth interviews and focus groups with over one hundred more, \u003ci\u003eYoung, Gifted and Diverse\u003c\/i\u003e highlights diversity among the new educated Black elite--those graduating from America's selective colleges and universities in the early twenty-first century. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDifferences in childhood experiences shape this generation, including their racial and other social identities and attitudes, and beliefs about and interactions with one another. While those in the new Black elite come from myriad backgrounds and have varied views on American racism, as they progress through college and toward the Black professional class they develop a shared worldview and group consciousness. They graduate with optimism about their own futures, but remain guarded about racial equality more broadly. This internal diversity alongside political consensus among the elite complicates assumptions about both a monolithic Black experience and the future of Black political solidarity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-11965038\"\u003eCamille Z.
