As the racial/ethnic makeup of the U.S. student population becomes increasingly diverse, the teaching force has remained primarily white. Given this mismatch, and the consequences that educators’ racial attitudes have for students’ academic and developmental outcomes, it is important to understand the racial attitudes of white educators and how those attitudes differ from those of racially minoritized Americans. Using nationally representative data from 1975–2016, we find that compared with racially minoritized respondents, white educators are less supportive of government equalizing efforts, hold more negative racial stereotypes of African Americans, and express more social distance from minoritized groups. Through future research, we must develop a greater understanding of how these attitudes manifest in the classroom to affect students and how problematic attitudes of educators can be improved.

随着美国学生人口的种族/民族构成变得越来越多样化，教师队伍仍然主要是白人。鉴于这种不匹配，以及教育工作者的种族态度对学生学业和发展成果的影响，了解白人教育工作者的种族态度以及这些态度与少数族裔美国人的态度有何不同非常重要。使用 1975-2016 年的全国代表性数据，我们发现与少数族裔受访者相比，白人教育工作者不太支持政府的平等努力，对非裔美国人持有更多负面的种族刻板印象，并表示与少数族裔有更多的社会距离。通过未来的研究，
