Mechanisms of Racialization Beyond the Black/white Binary
It's Like Going Back in Time: How White Retirees Use Expatriation to Reclaim White Dominance
The number of Americans and Canadians choosing to live outside of their home countries after retirement is increasing rapidly, with Mexico as the primary destination for emigration. The majority of these expatriates are white. This study explores how race affects the experiences of emigration and expatriation for these retirees. In-depth interviews with 30 white expatriate retirees living in Mazatlán, Mexico, reveal that white expatriates respond…
Exploring the mechanisms of racialization beyond the black-white binary
Racialization plays a central role in the creation and reproduction of racial meanings, and its inclusion enriches the study of race and ethnicity. While the popularity of the term continues to skyrocket, defining precisely what is meant by racialization can be a daunting task, let alone identifying how, when, where, why, and under what conditions it operates. However, it is essential to recognize the processes of racialization in order to develo…
People's Heads Do Not Even Go There: Public Perceptions to Transracial Familial Intimacy
U.S. culture uses phenotypical resemblance as the primary way that family ties are legitimized and authenticated. Transracial adoption challenges this type of kinship authentication because of the lack of resemblance among family members. This study finds that transracial family members must contend with being both hypervisible and incomprehensible as a family formation due to normative assumptions of which family members “belong” together. Trans…
You're Either One of Us or You're Not: Racial Hierarchy and Non-Black Members of Black Greek-Letter Organizations
Colleges and universities across the United States tout the importance of racial diversity, yet highly public racialized incidents persist. Historically, Black Greek-letter organizations (BGLOs) were created in the early twentieth century in response to the racism Black students experienced on college campuses. While previous literature provides evidence for the positive effects of BGLOs for Black members, less is known about if and how these eff…
Making Everyday Microaggressions: An Exploratory Experimental Vignette Study on the Presence and Power of Racial Microaggressions
The term 'microaggression' has experienced a lively existence in the field of psychology since its introduction in 1970s. Sociology has recently come to study microaggressions, yet serious gaps remain in the study of microaggressions. In particular, sociological analysis has not taken into account how exposure to microaggressive interactions may affect racial attitudes, how variations in microaggressive interactions have different effects, and wh…
Du Bois and Weber: A Scholarly Relationship Denied
As established in Morris' book, The Scholar Denied (2015) Du Bois' influence and contributions have often been ignored within mainstream sociology. When not completely snubbed, historiography has o

Racial Authenticity and Familial Acceptance Among Transracial Adoptees: A Bothersome Bargain of Belonging
Transracial adoption in the United States has increased significantly in recent years. Crossing the color line within the intimate familial sphere has important implications for how institutions such as the family enable and constrain individuals' identity work. We explore how transracial family members utilize racial stereotypes and racialist understandings in everyday life, employing 30 in-depth, life-story interviews with both transracial adop…
A Level Playing Field? Media Constructions of Athletics, Genetics, and Race
The link between black athleticism and biological determinism has been wrought with debate. With the domination of black athletics over white challengers-such as boxer Jack Johnson or sprinter Jessie Owens-some began to assert that blacks possessed a biological predisposition toward athletic excellence and that Darwinian winnowing during chattel slavery's harsh conditions magnified African American and West Indian athletic prowess. Despite biolog…
