I am glad to see this article in print! Here, we build a bridge between institutional theory and the theory of racialized organizations to draw attention to how social interactions provide a dynamic view of racialization in and by organizations. Check it out: journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

IU Sociology Saturday Afternoon sessions @asanews.bsky.social !!

UPDATE: The Indiana legislature announced that, across the state's public universities, it will immediately eliminate 75 programs, suspend/teach-out 101, and force 232 to consolidate or be eliminated. Not surprisingly, these closures disproportionately affect arts, humanities, and social science.

New pub drop in @SREJournal ! Special thanks to my amazing coauthors, Dr. Jaclyn Tabor & Dr. Jennifer C. Lee, for letting me be a part of this really cool paper! Title: Model Students, Model Citizens: Narratives of Japanese American Students, 1930s–1940s journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1...

Finally, I'm excited to be starting as a Visiting Assistant Professor this fall at Lafayette College! Faculty and students I met on my visit were nothing but kind and enthusiastic about my research and teaching. Looking forward to joining the Lafayette community.

The week after, I successfully defended my dissertation! I'm so grateful to the incredible group of women on my committee. Just a snapshot after years of mentorship. Thank you @dinaokamoto.bsky.social @jessicacalarco.bsky.social Jennifer C. Lee, Hyeyoung Kwon, & Sylvia Martinez. Dream team.

Please join us for a meet and greet with Mimi Khuc, a renowned writer, scholar, & teacher, to the ACC alongside the Center for Research on Race & Ethnicity in Society (CRRES)! Join us on Thursday, April 10th 12-1pm at the Asian Culture Center (807 E 10th St) Register: events.iu.edu/asian-cultur...

I keep thinking about this, mostly because my version would look very different. Something brutal & gutting, not ending on hope but a call to action. Support & protect your PhD students. Advocate within your institutions. Let go of the status quo. It's already dead. www.science.org/content/arti...

I get that we're messaging to whatever moveable conservatives are left out there and trying to outrun the targets on all of our backs. I really do. But I refuse to forget why this work matters. And I refuse to throw students of color under the bus. My op-ed in @dispatch.com:

Join us this Friday (3/28) to hear PhD student Soocheol Cho present his talk titled, “Perceptions of Remote Workers During and After the COVID-19 Pandemic.” We'll meet for WiSIU in SISR 100 at 12pm.

Join us tomorrow (3/14) at WiSIU to hear from Dr. Anthony Chen present "Puzzling through SFFA: The Roberts Court and the Backstopping of Minority Rule." We'll meet in the SSRC at 12pm.

Excited to share my paper published in ASR on unemployment and suicide!! Using big administrative data on suicide, we show that unemployed people are more likely to die by suicide, but their suicide risk is lower when and where more people are unemployed. journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

This Friday (3/7), IU Sociology's own Dr. Koji Chavez (@kojichavez.bsky.social) presents a WiSIU work-in-progress, "Diversity Buffering: The Organization of Diversity Labor and the Consequences for 'Happy' Diversity Rhetoric." Join us in the SSRC at 1:30pm.

2020-21: structural racism 2021-23: CRT 2023-now: DEI Fascinating to get a bird's eye view. And useful to remember that the shift to CRT, not as legal theory but catch-all boogeyman, was a deliberate, calculated effort.

New pub drop!! “Hispanic intersectional pay in the United States: Measuring the intra- and inter-ethnoracial and gender income differences by Hispanic groups” Special thanks to my coauthors, Rin Ferraro, Abby Young, Briceria Bernal, and Dr. Cyrus Schleifer! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10....

excited to see this special issue #SocialProblems intro on the Racism of Omission is out! by @victorerikray.bsky.social, @rorykramer.bsky.social and Eduardo Bonilla-Silva. I've been telling people about this long before it was published academic.oup.com/socpro/advan...

Good discussion by @oiyanpoon.bsky.social & @janellewong.bsky.social about the racist ploy to use Asian American students & families to threaten colleges over admissions, diversity, & who is framed as ‘deserving’ of attending highly rejective institutions. www.insidehighered.com/opinion/view...

This Friday (2/21) at WiSIU, Dr. Seth Abrutyn (@sethabrutyn.bsky.social) presents "Imagining an Affective Sociology." Join us in the SSRC at 12pm.
