🚨Paper🚨 What is social constructionism about race? Philosophers of race usually treat constructionism as a theory about what exists. This misses something important: race constructionism is a practice - a way to investigate human activities. #philsky #STS link.springer.com/article/10.1...

[NEW PAPER] In "Beyond Dichotomies", I challenge the false dichotomy between subjectivity and objectivity in human social relationships. I show how they are both biological and social, using kinship research as an example. I’d love to hear your thoughts! #PhilSci #Anthropology #PhilSky

EPSA 2025 (@epsaphilsci.bsky.social) was a fantastic conference – full of learning, inspiring conversations, and wonderful people. Grateful to @celsoneto.bsky.social for the invitation to the Race Across Genomics Symposium!
