名义上开放的组织在后民权时代如何以及为什么仍然存在种族隔离？人际交往在种族隔离的延续中扮演了什么角色？利用从四个州七个以白人为主的福音派教会收集的人种学数据，我们发现社会行为者（即神职人员和会众）通过对试图进入这些空间的有色人种实施“种族测试”，在继续种族隔离方面发挥了核心作用。种族测试是白人个人和群体在即将到来的有色人种面前的表现。他们利用种族微观侵犯，利用顽固的种族主义刻板印象和/或种族暴力历史，阻止或阻碍有色人种参与以白人为主的社会空间。白人社会空间中的白人行动者发起基于功利的种族测试，以确定有色人种是否愿意为空间中的白人利益服务，或者执行排斥性的种族测试，迫使有色人种离开该空间。我们提供了这两种类型的种族测试的例子，并讨论了这种微侵犯的作用，以及种族化的情绪在白人福音派教堂等历史上的白人社会空间中种族隔离的再现中所起的作用。
How and why do nominally open organizations remain racially segregated in the post-civil rights era? What role do interpersonal interactions play in the perpetuation of segregation? Using ethnographic data gathered from seven, majority white, evangelical churches across four states, we find that social actors (i.e., clergy and congregants) play a central role in continuing racial segregation by executing “race tests” on people of color who attempt to gain entry to these spaces. Race tests are performances by white individuals and groups, in the presence of incoming people of color. They utilize racial microaggressions, playing on persistent racist stereotypes and/or histories of racial violence, to preclude or precondition people of color's participation in predominantly white social spaces. White actors in white social spaces initiate utility-based race tests to determine whether people of color are willing to serve the interests of whites in the space, or execute exclusionary race tests to coerce people of color into leaving the space. We provide examples of both types of race tests and discuss the role of such microaggressions and the racialized emotions at play in the reproduction of segregation in historically white social spaces like white evangelical churches.
