Racial microaggressions
This article reviews racial microaggressions, specifically psychology and sociology's historical trajectory in informing existing literatures and disciplines, in its connections to meso and macro levels of systemic racism. In doing so, we contend that a sociological understanding of racial microaggressions presents opportunities to better understand the cumulative and deleterious effects of racial violence on racialized groups. Furthermore, we ar…
Mortuary Pottery and Sacred Landscapes in Complex Hunter-gatherers in the Paraná Basin, South America
Tubular pottery comprises certain peculiar artifacts that were produced by late Holocene complex hunter-gatherer societies in southeastern South America for unknown purposes. Some authors have related them to mortuary behaviour which has also been suggested by historical sources, while others have considered domestic use. In this paper, the technical, compositional and functional properties of these artifacts are explored in order to contrast bot…
Pigmentos en la cerámica del humedal del Paraná inferior
En la alfarería producida por los cazadores recolectores que habitaron la cuenca inferior del río Paraná se evidencia la apli cación de diferentes pinturas. En este trabajo presentamos los resultados del análisis de las mezclas pigmentarias de colores rojo, blanco y negro, a través de las técnicas meb-edx (micros copía electrónica de barrido y microanálisis por dispersión de energía de rayosX). Además, se realizaron estudios sobre hueso calcinado…
White Sanctuaries
In this article, we compare two nationally recognized museums located in Chicago and Boston: The Art Institute of Chicago and the Boston Fine Arts Museum. We find that while both museums are colonial projects and White sanctuaries, there are variations in the racial mechanisms in place that help maintain White supremacy. Specifically, we look at three such mechanisms and compare and contrast between the two museums. We contend our findings sugges…
White sanctuaries
Purpose This paper examines the Art Institute of Chicago – a nationally recognized museum – as a white sanctuary, i.e., a white institutional space within a racialized social system that serves to reassure whites of their dominant position in society. The purpose of this paper is to highlight how museums create and maintain white spaces within the greater context of being an institution for the general public. Design/methodology/approach The empi…
A qualitative investigation of the perceived role of peers in influencing substance use among youth in Monrovia, Liberia
Substance use and abuse has become an issue for adolescents globally. While multiple factors contribute to substance use, peer influence is particularly important. As such, this study aimed to examine students’ beliefs related to substance use, including the role peers have on substance use behaviors in Monrovia, Liberia. Nine focus groups were conducted with a total of 72 public school students in Monrovia. All focus groups were recorded, transc…
Contributing Risk Factors for Substance Use Among Youth in Postconflict Liberia
Substance use is prevalent among youth in postconflict African countries and is associated with a number of public health problems such as poverty, child homelessness, and school truancy. This qualitative study explores the risk factors associated with substance use among Liberian youth from the perspective of public-school students. Nine focus groups were conducted with 72 Liberian public-school students (35 female, 37 male). Multiple risk facto…
The impact of transactional sex with teachers on public school students in Monrovia, Liberia – a brief report
Access to education has been shown to strongly influence adolescent health across the world, and strong relationships with teachers has been found to lead to better academic and psychosocial outcomes for students. In many low-income countries where adolescents have less access to education and are more likely to experience poor health outcomes, risky sexual behaviors can exacerbate these challenges by increasing the risk of unintended pregnancy a…
Longitudinal growth of post-traumatic stress and depressive symptoms following a child maltreatment allegation
More than Just Insults
Our goal with this special issue is to expand currently untapped ideas about racial microaggressions from a sociological point of view. As noted, research on this issue comes largely out of psychiatry, psychology, and education-disciplines that tend to place less emphasis on structural and institutional causes of racism. There is a need for more sociologically guided research to examine how subtle, covert, and non-apparent forms of racism affect …

Mixed Methods Social Networks Research
This edited volume demonstrates the potential of mixed-methods designs for the research of social networks and the utilization of social networks for other research. Mixing methods applies to the combination and integration of qualitative and quantitative methods. In social network research, mixing methods also applies to the combination of structural and actor-oriented approaches. The volume provides readers with methodological concepts to guide…
Beyond individual and visible acts of violence
Mental health and adaptation of young Liberians in post-conflict Liberia
Civil wars have been raging in regions of Africa, bringing tremendous emotional and physical mayhem and destruction to populations and infrastructures. Much attention has been given to descriptions of child soldiers and the war, but little is known about the circumstances of young Liberians in post-conflict situations. This study explores the ways in which young Liberians are surviving in the post-conflict Liberian context. We used qualitative da…
Film Review
Getting Ahead
Getting Ahead tells the compelling stories of Latin-American immigrant women living in public housing in two Boston-area neighborhoods. Silvia Domínguez argues that these immigrant women parlay social ties that provide support and leverage to develop networks and achieve social positioning to get ahead. Through a rich ethnographic account and in-depth interviews, the strong voices of these women demonstratehow they successfully negotiate the worl…
Economies of Desire
It is all about who you know
There is an increasing understanding about the importance of social networks in the overall health of individuals. In the past year studies have found that strong social ties could promote brain health as we age; having obese friends increases the risk for obesity; and older people with many friends outlive those with fewer friends. This manuscript describes capacity-building interventions based on social capital, including empowerment, community…

Acculturation of Host Individuals
There has been a vast amount of research on the changes experienced by immigrants, but little is known about the changes experienced by host individuals. This article focuses on the role of host individuals in the networks of relations between immigrant populations and the communities from the dominant culture, as well as the changes experienced by host individuals because of their continuous contact with immigrants. This research applied a netwo…
