Socioeconomic-Status-Based Disrespect, Discrimination, Exclusion, and Shaming
Observing an association between socioeconomic status (SES) and health reliably leads to the question, 'What are the pathways involved?' Despite enormous investment in research on the characteristics, behaviors, and traits of people disadvantaged with respect to health inequalities, the issue remains unresolved. We turn our attention to actions of more advantaged groups by asking people to self-report their exposure to disrespect, discrimination,…
Symbolic disempowerment and Donald Trump's 2016 presidential election
The 2016 election of United States (U.S.) President Donald Trump was a political event that may have affected population-level mental health. A prominent theme in the Trump election was anti-immigrant policy that contributed to a racist and xenophobic sociopolitical climate. Applying a symbolic dis/empowerment framework, this study examines whether there was an effect of the Trump election on the mental health of the U.S. population that differed…
Immigrant Health Inequities
Diversions occur when research disregards the inequality-generating actions of advantaged groups and instead focuses attention on the actions and behaviors of disadvantaged groups. We incorporate important insights from COVID-19 to illustrate historical and contemporary examples of diversions. This paper highlights US immigrant health inequities-a burgeoning subfield within the broader health inequalities canon-to explore: (1) if and how diversio…
Diversions
We identify a gap in health inequalities research that sociologists are particularly well situated to fill-an underrepresentation of research on the role advantaged groups play in creating inequalities. We name the process that creates the imbalance health-inequality diversions. We gathered evidence from awarded grants (349), major health-related data sets (7), research articles (324), and Healthy People policy recommendations. We assess whether …
Systemic Anti-Black Racism Must Be Dismantled
Latino Immigrant Parents' Experiences With Discrimination
A growing anti-immigrant context has increased the discrimination Latino immigrant families confront in the United States. This study examines the relationship between discrimination and Latinos' parenting practices. Using cross-sectional data on parenting practices, discrimination, immigration-related factors, and protective factors among Latino immigrant families, we conduct a latent profile analysis to (a) identify profiles of perceived discri…
Living a Deportation Threat
Involving Latina/o parents in patient‐centered outcomes research
BACKGROUND: Comparative effectiveness research (CER) is supported by policymakers as a way to provide service providers and patients with evidence-based information to make better health-care decisions and ultimately improve services for patients. However, Latina/o patients are rarely involved as study advisors, and there is a lack of documentation on how their voices contribute to the research process when they are included as collaborators. OBJ…
Bridging critical race theory and migration
Critical race scholars have shifted the sociological migration literature from addressing how immigrants incorporate into the host society to instead asking how immigrants, their children, and communities are racialized. They also shift the focus from “ethnic” descriptions of immigrants of color by bringing race and racism to the forefront. This article provides an overview of critical race theory to document the racialized lives of Mexican immig…
"Racializing "Illegality
By shedding light on how Mexicans are racialized, scholars have brought racism to the forefront of migration research. Still, less is known about how "illegality" complicates racialized experiences, and even less is known about how gender and class further complicate this process. Drawing on 60 interviews with Mexican-origin women in Houston, Texas, this research explores how documented and Mexican American women are racialized, the institutional…
