The Love Jones Cohort: Single and Living Alone in the Black Middle Class

Join the Center for Racial Justice in welcoming Dr. Kris Marsh, author and Associate Professor of Sociology at the University of Maryland, to discuss her latest book The Love Jones Cohort: Single and Living Alone in the Black Middle Class. The Love Jones Cohort provides a nuanced understanding of how race, gender, and class, coupled with social structures, shape five central lifestyle factors of Black middle-class adults who are single and living alone. This event is the first of our Fall 2023 Racial Foundations of Public Policy speaker series. Open to U-M students, faculty, staff, and community partners. A reception in the Rebecca M. Blank Great Hall will follow the event.
