This study investigated the relationships between discrimination, skin tone, and objective and subjective social isolation among African Americans using data from the National Survey of American Life. The analyses indicated that discrimination was positively associated with subjective and objective isolation. Skin tone moderated the association between discrimination and subjective isolation.
