Voting Intersections
Intersectional analyses are increasingly common in sociology; however, analyses of voting tend to focus on only race, class, or gender, using the others as control variables. We assess whether and how race, class, and gender intersect to produce distinct patterns of voter engagement in presidential elections 2008-2016. Per existing research, we find income strongly predicts White voting. However, the class gap in voting is not statistically signi…
Rethinking Panethnicity and the Race-immigration Divide
Although demographic shifts continue to spark interest in the racially transformative effects of immigration, researchers routinely lament the lack of dialogue between race and immigration scholarship. We use recent research on panethnicity to illustrate the conceptual divides that exist between the two subfields. Panethnicity research has shed new light on the formation of group identities and political mobilization, but we contend that it is pr…
The New Racial Politics of Welfare
Research on race and welfare focuses largely on characterizations of black and white welfare recipients. Few studies examine racialized welfare discourse beyond the black-white divide. Employing media and archival data from four states during the 1996 welfare reforms, this study finds variation in welfare discourse depending on the perceived race of the beneficiaries. While existing work emphasizes the prevalence of a morality discourse about laz…
They must be discontented
Existing research demonstrates that black population size in a given area correlates with the passage of racially restrictive policies in that area. This paper examines the mechanisms through which minority population size translates into exclusionary policies. It does so by examining a little-known but critical aspect of US civil rights history: the development of policies which allowed white communities to close their public schools entirely ra…
Lyric and Logic in Sociological Writing
Just one month into graduate school, I sat with a few of my fellow graduate students as we read first drafts of various fellowship applications. By editing each other's work we accomplished two goals. First, we honed our writing skills, digesting the feedback offered to us and reshaping our proposals accordingly. Second, we gained an appreciation for the source of each student's passion for sociology. We were no longer neophyte sociologists but u…
