Which of the following is a bias explanation for racial stratification? Show answer choices Orlando Patterson posits a "cool pose" culture among inner city African American men, and argues that this subculture has a set of values at odds with "mainstream" values. In turn, this makes it difficult for adherents of the "cool pose" culture to enter the labor force. In his analysis of the job market, William Julius Wilson finds that there has been a dramatic decrease in demand for low-skilled labor, which once employed a disproportionate number of African American men. This has made it more difficult for African Americans and other minorities to enter the labor force. In interviews with potential employers, William Julius Wilson finds that many employers have prejudices against some racial-ethnic groups and discriminate against them in hiring and promotion. This makes it difficult for African Americans and other minorities to find jobs, and it partially explains racial differences in pay.
