Truly honoured to have won the Minorities in Economics Best Paper Award 🎉 for my job market paper “Between Arab and White: Syrians and the Naturalization Law”, presented at the European Economic Association annual congress 🙏 I’m also on the job market this year 😇

Had a great time presenting one of my favourite research projects with my amazing friend @doniakamel.bsky.social 👇 Huge thanks to the organisers for including our paper! Wait for the new draft coming soon 😮‍💨

Hopping on the Studio Ghibli trend to say it was great presenting my JMP “Between Arab and White: Syrians and the Naturalization Law” at Harvard’s Econ History Workshop ✌🏽 Excited to present it next at NBER’s Race & Stratification Working Group next Friday. Thread coming soon 👀

Not surprised that academics chose to embrace the social media closest to a paywalled journal.

Now that the same faces from Twitter are here on Blue Sky, I look forward to having the same non-judgmental and safe environment where junior scholars are not publicly dunked by senior folks.
