Database
ericir.syr.edu
ERIC is "the world's
largest source of education information, with nearly 1 million abstracts of documents and
journal articles on education research and practice." Some of these papers provide
useful sociological information on the relationship between education and race/ethnicity.
Abstracts of the papers are free; the site also explains how to obtain copies of the
papers, many at low cost.
Public Agenda
www.publicagenda.com
"The inside source
for public opinion and policy analysis," created as a resource for journalists,
offers facts (some in graphic form) for understanding various issues, as well as analyses
of public opinion survey data and of public policy news and studies. One feature
increasing this site's credibility is its "red flags" about potentially
misleading poll results. Among the social issues addressed is race and ethnicity.
Stateline
www.stateline.org
Racial/ethnic statistics
on various social issues can be called up by state or compared across states. This site
was created for journalists but provides reliable data for sociological analysis.
