Abstract

Using multiple surveys, this study examined the association between attending congregations in which clergy and/or lay persons discussed social-political issues and the perceptions Blacks, Whites, and Hispanics have about the social responsibility of corporations. We also examined racial differences in the degree to which attending political congregations associate with a willingness to and actual participation in boycotts and/or selective buying campaigns. We found that attending social-politically oriented congregations associates with Black and White interest in corporate responsibility. However, the degree to which clergy political appeals associates with Whites, Blacks, and Hispanics participating in boycotting and selective buying campaigns is seemingly tied to the aim of the boycott.|Keywords: race, boycotts, selective buying, political, social responsibility
