(Re)mapping Blackness While Interrogating Whiteness
Text to sex
By centering attention on how students feel after casual sex, studies of the college social scene miss an extremely important phenomenon—namely, how hookups get started. This article argues that it is in the negotiation of contact during hookups that college students creatively navigate their sexual identity. Using a mixed methodology, this research reveals that the cell phone, as both an object of communication and consumption, is essential to t…
Making African American Homeplaces in Rural Virginia
In this article, I propose that anthropologists of Christianity broaden their understanding of emotion to include intense attachments to home and kin as central to cultivating faith. I use examples from my research with African Americans who continue to live on land purchased by their emancipated ancestors and attend a United Methodist church established by those same ancestors in rural Western Virginia. I suggest that theoretical attention to th…

Patriarchy through lamentation in Azerbaijan
In this article, I analyze patriarchy through the lens of emotional discourse in and beyond death rituals among Mountain Jews in northeastern Azerbaijan. I argue that the time-bound nature of female lamentation and the recent development of a popular narrative conceptualizing this genre as the custom defining Mountain Jewish identity in the Caucasus ultimately work to disempower women, reaffirming gender roles through narratives of suffering. Eve…
Azerbaijani Ethnography
This article explores the ethnographic study of Azerbaijan from two perspectives. It discusses the development of ethnography in Azerbaijan and then looks at how western ethnographers have investigated the region recently. Goluboff and Karaeva highlight the similarities and differences between local and foreign methodologies and theoretical approaches, especially the concept of ethnogenesis. [Azerbaijan, ethnography, theory, dialogue between Amer…
Are They Jews or Asians? A Cautionary Tale about Mountain Jewish Ethnography
In this article, Sascha L. Goluboff investigates the development of ethnographic knowledge about Mountain Jews in Azerbaijan to provide new ways of understanding who Mountain Jews are and to provoke scholars to reflect critically on empire, ethnicity, and religion in the Caucasus. Following Nicholas B. Dirks's recent call for anthropologists to pay attention to the "textual field that is the pretext to fieldwork," Goluboff analyzes how the work o…
Fistfights at the Moscow Choral Synagogue
In this article I investigate ritual life at the Moscow Choral Synagogue, the largest and longest running Orthodox synagogue in the Russian capital. Unlike many Eastern European synagogues, this synagogue is a thriving prayer community due to its unique congregation of Russian, Georgian, Bukharan, Mountain, and visiting Western Jews. I focus on a fistfight that took place between an Israeli and a Georgian Jew during prayer. I detail how Russian a…
The savage in the jew
The study of the interrelationships between Russian Jews and Mountain Jews at the Moscow Choral Synagogue provides a basis to explore how race defines the Russian and Jewish nations. An examination of the racializing discourses used by men from both groups to categorize one another shows how images of gender and sexuality shaped these narratives and provided the means to subvert them. An exploration of the making of the nation through women's bod…
