Abstract

In four cross-sectional studies (N = 2,228; three preregistered), we hypothesized and found that U.S. American and White collective narcissism is associated with opposition to racial equality, whereas racial collective narcissism among Blacks and Latinx in the U.S. is associated with support for racial equality. In Studies 1 & 2, American national and White racial collective narcissism was positively associated with support for state repression of Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement, anti-egalitarianism and legitimization of racial inequality. Black racial collective narcissism was negatively associated with the same variables. In Studies 3 & 4, American national and White racial collective narcissism was positively associated with anti-egalitarianism, support for the alt-right movement and opposition to policies to advance racial minorities. Latinx racial collective narcissism was negatively associated with the same variables. In sum, in the U.S., national collective narcissism among Whites and racial minorities and White racial collective narcissism hinder the pursuit of racial equality. However, Black and Latinx racial collective narcissism is associated with pursuit of racial equality.
