The OC invisible menOCO of sociologist Adia Harvey WingfieldOCOs urgent and timely "No More Invisible Man" are African American professionals who fall between extremely high status, high-profile black men and the urban underclass. Her compelling interview study considers middle-class, professional black men and the challenges, obstacles, and opportunities they encounter in white maleOCodominated occupations.
"No More Invisible Man" chronicles these menOCOs experiences as a tokenized minority in the workplace to show how issues of power and inequality existOCoespecially as they relate to promotion, mobility, and developing occupational networks. WingfieldOCOs intersectional analysis deftly charts the ways that gender, race, and class collectively shape black professional menOCOs work experiences.
In its examination of menOCOs interactions with women and other men, as well as menOCOs performances of masculinity and their emotional demeanors in these jobs, "No More Invisible Man" extends our understanding of racial- and gender-based dynamics in professional work.
