Discursive interactions
Existing research on Latinx racial and ethnic socialization has focused on ethnic socialization, while not fully examining how racial discourses unfold within Latinx families or how racial discourses among family members interact to shape how children understand race. Using racial formation theory, I develop the concept of discursive interactions , which unpacks how multiple racial discourses interact in everyday conversations among family member…
The racial and ethnic socialisation continuum
Research on racial and ethnic socialisation of Latinxs has focused on ethnic socialisation while under-examining the racial discourses and ideologies that Latinxs use when discussing racial and ethnic identity and stratification in their families. This study draws on 65 interviews with predominantly U.S.-born Latinxs. Using the theoretical framework of racial formation, I develop the racial and ethnic socialisation (RES) continuum to conceptualis…
Resisting Racist Discourses with Research Methods, Active Learning, and Storytelling
This article contributes to building anti-racist teaching resources in the scholarship of teaching and learning in sociology. We developed an active learning-based project in which students conduct and analyze an interview with someone they are close to on how their family discussed racial discourses during their childhoods. Using Latinx Critical Race Theory as a framework and through qualitative analyses of student assignments, we found that the…
Conceptualizing Ethnicity
Multidimensional measures of ethnicity that distinguish between characteristics associated with ethnicity (attributional) or race (relational) offer a nuanced explanation of health disparities by revealing aspects of ethnicity that shape health outcomes differently, contributing to the goals of health equity
White Supremacy, Patriarchy, and Global Capitalism in Migration Studies
Ten years after sociologist Mary Romero lamented the "ideological and theoretical gulf between immigration research and the sociology of race," researchers have begun to bridge this theoretical gulf by centering critical race theory in studies of migration. Building on these analyses, this article argues that migration flows and immigrant incorporation are shaped not only by white supremacy but also by patriarchy and global capitalism. Insofar as…
Language Planning in the Spanish-Speaking World
This paper reviews in detail the diffusion and promotion of the Spanish language, from the first settlement of the Spanish colonisers in the Americas to the present day. The first sections deal with the establishment and development of Spanish in the Hispanic American colonies. Subsequent sections describe the situation of Spanish within Spain as a form of internal colonisation, and trace its development from the time of the colonisation of the A…
