| Tiivistelmä: | The 1992 Los Angeles not the boycotts of Korean owned businesses and the 1995 firebombing of a Jewish- owned store in New York's Harlem brought concerns about race and ethnic relations in black neighborhoods to the fore. Images of conflict seared into the public consciousness that black communities are fraught with racial animosity, with immigrant merchants pitted against black customers. The merchant-customer relationship has been cited as a catalyst to such conflicts. This study is based on 75 in depth interviews of African American Jewish and Korean merchants and on 75 in depth interviews with black customers and both participant and nonparticipant observation at five research sites in New York City and Philadelphia. |
