Social movement schools
We develop the concept of “social movement school’ (SMS), showing how these organizational spaces are deliberately designed for purposes of educating, mentoring, training, and coordinating individuals as effective, committed movement agents. SMSs can also be important sites of prefigurative design and practice for future societal development consistent with movement goals. We motivate the theoretical significance of SMSs based on five perspective…
Legal Mobilization and Analogical Legal Framing
We investigate how cause lawyers articulate their demands in court. We do so by examining feminist legal briefs submitted in US Supreme Court cases from 1970 to the present, specifically focusing on the use of race–gender analogical legal framing. We explore the frequency and trends in the use of such arguments as well as the forms these arguments take, including how race–gender analogies parallel frame bridging and transformation. Additionally, …
Differing shades of colour
The racial and ethnic makeup of the United States has become increasingly diverse over the past few decades. Growing rates of interracial dating and marriage have led to an increasing number of biracial individuals. Despite increasing rates of biracial individuals, research on this population specifically in relation to dating preferences, remains limited in scope. In order to assess biracial individuals' romantic partner preferences, the present…
Litigating Change? Social Movements and the Court System
Social movement actors increasingly turn to the law and pursue litigation in their efforts to bring about social change. Our article provides an overview of scholarship on collective and politicized litigation, drawing from sociolegal studies, political science, and sociology. We consider scholarship that illuminates why activists turn to litigation tactics in the first place and circumstances in which a social movement litigation strategy can be…
Online dating preferences of Asian Americans
This study investigates the inter- and intraracial dating preferences of heterosexual Asian males and females as well as gay Asian males. Using data collected from 1270 Internet dating profiles, logistic regression is employed to examine the odds of one's willingness to date someone who is Asian, White, Black, Hispanic, and some other race. The findings suggest that heterosexual females and gay males prefer to date Whites over nonwhites. Moreover…
Early Sexual Initiation and HIV Awareness among Asian American Adolescents
Early Sexual Initiation and HIV Awareness among Asian American Adolescents Glenn T. Tsunokai (bio), Allison R. McGrath (bio), and Lurdes Hernandez-Hernandez (bio) In 2008 roughly 13.5 million u.s. residents identified themselves as Asian; of that number, approximately 25 percent (3.4 million) were younger than nineteen.1 The Asian adolescent population is projected to increase by more than 83 percent by 2020, representing the most rapid growth am…
