Humanizing Asian Americans in educational research
In this article, four Asian American faculty, working at different stages of the tenure-track/tenured pipeline and different regions of the United States, provide scholarly personal narratives about their experiences in academe to contribute to humanizing Asian Americans in educational research. The narratives comprise a collective counter-story that resists the racialization of Asian Americans as a monolith. Analyzing the narratives, the authors…
"Divide, Divert, & Conquer" Deconstructing the Presidential Framing of White Supremacy in the Covid-19 Era
Based on the analysis of President Donald J. Trump's social media, along with excerpts from his speeches and press releases, this study sheds light on the framing of white supremacy during the first months of the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States.

Ethnicity everywhere and nowhere: A Critical Approach Towards Parsing Ethnic and Non-Ethnic Processes
This article has two parts. First, it presents Andreas Wimmer's framework for comparative ethnic boundary making as a way of disentangling ethnic and non-ethnic processes. Wimmer's framework helps avoid the persistent tendency among researchers to attribute ethnic causes to ethnic patterns of inequality. Second, it focuses on how these insights can be applied to the US case, a nation that arguably pays a lot of attention to ethnicity and where et…

Growing Up Ethnic in Transnational Worlds: Identities Among Second-Generation Chinese and Dominicans
Transnationalism refers to the phenomenon of immigrants maintaining connections to their country of origin and using a dual frame of reference to evaluate their experiences and outcomes in the country in which they have settled. How does transnationalism matter in the identities among the second generation? This article argues that growing up with parents who want children to participate in their homeland imaginary and in a strong transnational s…
Second-Generation Pessimism and Optimism: How Chinese and Dominicans Understand Education and Mobility through Ethnic and Transnational Orientations
Higher education is crucial to the outcomes of the second generation. This paper explores the contrasting views second-generation Dominicans and Chinese have on their educational trajectories and social mobility. Drawing on interviews with individuals who have gone on to college, I argue that the optimism of the Dominicans emerges from their use of both transnational and ethnic/panethnic perspectives. The Dominicans believe they are doing better …

Her findings suggest that, across social class, Chinese immigrant parents have high expectations for their children, reflecting both immigrant optimism and immigrant pessimism about their children's outcomes. However, Louie finds significant differences in the resources and education…
