Pleased to announce my article is now online at @qualsoc! In "I don't know what's racist," I show that even color-conscious/anti-racist white volunteers struggle to see how *their* race is important in their day-to-day service interactions. Read here: rdcu.be/cTaOP

I don’t know that resolutions from academics actually impact the world. But I know that silence does. @ASAnews @Soc4Pal
Be like @jgo34 ! @ASAnews ballots are out today! Vote YES on the Resolution for Justice in Palestine! "I don't want to be complicit. I don't want to be complicit in a systematic slaughter of tens of thousands of innocent Palestinians in the name of security ..."

I confess I am guilty of doing this, but why do we keep quantifying qualitative results/methods? "I undertook 1,300 hours of participant observation, wrote 450 pages of handwritten notes, my transcripts produced more than 6,000 single-spaced pages".

Despite a clear cause for concern in the academic literature regarding #WindEnergy, the media and policy seem to only see the positive potential... As support for renewable energies grows, so too must a discussion of an equitable transition. @SOCistMJS @socioneill #socialequity

Fun fact: the term “carbon footprint” was popularized by oil giant BP in the early 2000s to shift climate change blame onto individuals & away from corporations. Individual action is great, but 20 fossil fuel companies are responsible for a third of global carbon emissions.

Hi future grad student. As I make my way out, I have a little bit of advice. Celebrate EVERYTHING. Celebrate being admitted. Celebrate coming up with a research question. Celebrate just being alive. Damn what the more stuck up folks of academia have to say.

Despite rhetoric about how "we don't make anything anymore in the US," the fact remains that manufacturing is still a crucial part of the U.S. economy, and in some regions, particularly the South, it's a growth industry. 1/ tempestmag.org/2023/03/north…
