Janeria Easley (Emory University, former Penn Sociology/Population Studies Center post-doc) and Regina Baker (Penn Sociology) have been awarded a Russell Sage Foundation-Gates Foundation Pipeline Grant for their new project titled, “Intergenerational Mobility: A Holistic Approach to Socioeconomic Origin.” They will develop a holistic measure of socioeconomic origin based on five variables – income, wealth, neighborhood characteristics, occupation, and education – and analyze the extent to which socioeconomic origin affects economic mobility. This project aims to illuminate the invisible architecture of structural racism as it relates to disparities in intergenerational mobility.
