They Want Our Culture, Not Our Struggle
When it comes time to disagree that White male privilege exists, insisting race and gender equity is already achieved, deniers often point to prominent people of color in sports and entertainment industries. Famous figures like Oprah Winfrey, Beyonce Knowles, Jay-Z, and Lebron James may, with cursory glance, give impression that-even if fields like finance, technology, medicine, law, and politics have glass ceilings-the entertainment field provid…
Seeking Liberation, Facing Marginalization
Using interview data with Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) hip-hop participants, we analyze how respondents construct hip-hop as a liberating space where they can circumvent limiting racial and ethnic stereotypes. However, an intersectional lens reveals the constraints that hip-hop's hypermasculinity places onAAPImen as well as the ethnosexualized expectations thatAAPIwomen must negotiate. The experience ofAAPImen and women in hip-hop d…
From Antiracism to Antiracisms
Although antiracism has existed as long as there has been racism, social scientists’ attention to antiracism has increased in the past decade. In this essay, I argue that the body of scholarship on antiracism is characterized by three main strands: (1) a macro focus on the ideology and structure of antiracist social movement organizations, often attempting to distil ‘the real’ antiracism from others deemed not critical or radical enough to qualif…
It's the Message, Not the Messenger
We argue that due to the modern-day prevalence of colorblind racism, the impact of interracial contact on whites' racial consciousness is limited. By comparing two qualitative data sets of white antiracists and whites who have a close black friend, we find there are a good number of whites for whom relationships with people of color are not the prime impetus for becoming antiracist. Whites often bracket out their black friends from their limited …

The Early Hominid Plant-Food Niche
African plant-food genera exploited by Homo, Pan, and Papio have been catalogued and analyzed to provide an estimation of the size and composition of the fundamental plant-food niche of the early hominids. Results to date include recognition of more than 100 widely distributed African plant genera which are the best known candidates for plant-food exploitation by the Plio/Pleistocene hominids of eastern and southern Africa. An analysis of staples…
