We the People and America’s Constitutional Crisis
A majority of Americans agree that our democracy is at risk, but they disagree about the location of these threats. This article examines how debates about who constitutes the “we the people” seeded a politics of resentment that raised the saliency of the many antidemocratic tendencies and institutional features of the American political system. As the American electorate becomes more diverse, questions about whose voices, histories and votes sho…
The Dobbs’ Majority’s Biopolitics and the Advancement of Institutionalized White Supremacy
The US Supreme Court’s decision in Dobbs v. Jackson is an exercise in biopolitics that facilitates institutionalized white supremacy by subjugating pregnant people’s bodies to government regulation to control reproduction. The population most likely to be controlled via this exercise of biopower is people of color because prohibitions on abortion exacerbate existing structural inequities and racism and guarantee that the poor and pregnant people …

The Politics of Right Sex
"While the growing attention to trans rights and the development of trans specific interest groups suggest that the time is right for a trans rights movement akin to prior civil rights movements, The Politics of Right Sex explores the limitations of rights-based mobilization and litigation for advancing the interests of trans communities. Synthesizing critical theory, transgender studies, and extant law and society research, author Courtenay W. D…

White Complicity
Of mills and mines
The extant environmental justice research examines the unequal distribution of environmental risks across and within societies. While patterns of environmental injustice reveal that marginalized communities carry the greatest burden, to date, few scholars have examined the mutually constitutive relationships between environmental risks and intersectionally-subjected individuals and communities. In this article, we utilize intersectionial theory a…
Social Equity, Homonormativity, and Equality
This article begins with a discussion of the current social equity scholarship and advocates for the increased use of intersectional tools in order to make legible those individuals who are made invisible by dominant normativities. The article then proceeds to an examination of the U.S. Supreme Court’s Obergefell v. Hodges (576 U.S. ___ [2015]) decision and the subsequent implementation of marriage equality across the states in order to evaluate …
Taking a Knee
This article analyzes the National Football League (NFL) player protests against institutionalized racism as a means of radical democratic discourse. Players elected to sit/kneel during the playing of the national anthem on the sidelines of nationally televised football games precisely because this constitutes a radical democratic practice that runs counter to liberal democratic norms. While this strategy enabled players to move their discontents…
Conclusion
During the 2017 American Political Science Association (APSA) annual meeting in San Francisco, the Caucus for New Political Science (CNPS) celebrated its fiftieth-year anniversary. CNPS held a seri
Counterpublics and Intersectional Radical Resistance
This article examines the limitations of rights-based strategies and social movements for advancing the interests of marginalized and intersectionally-subjected populations in the US, and argues that counterpublics offer a viable alternative for populations designated as outsiders to cultivate their power, identities and discourses. While counterpublics are expected to comply with norms of behavior and discourse when attempting to persuade the pu…
The War on Solicitation and Intersectional Subjection
The selective enforcement of solicitation laws on transgender individuals—often referred to as “walking while trans”—has an especially pernicious effect on transgender people of color, immigrants, and the poor. Intersectional subjection—the interaction between multiple categories of identity and diffuse power and sources of authority within contemporaryAmerican society—facilitates processes of governmentality and makes some transgender individual…

From the Myth of Formal Equality to the Politics of Social Justice
This article examines how the conservative legal movement's successful countermobilization of the politics of rights enables U.S. Supreme Court outcomes that exacerbate racial and ethnic inequities while solidifying the privileged position of others in the name of equality. A comparison of two pivotal Supreme Court cases involving native entitlements-Morton v. Mancari (1974) and Rice v. Cayetano (2000)-illustrates how appeals to formal, as oppose…
