Using a web platform for equitable distribution of Covid-19 monoclonal antibodies
While medical countermeasures in COVID-19 have largely focused on vaccinations, monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) were early outpatient treatment options for COVID-positive patients. In Minnesota, a centralized access platform was developed to offer access to mAbs that linked over 31,000 patients to care during its operation. The website allowed patients, their representative, or providers to screen the patient for mAbs against Emergency Use Authoriza…
Ecosystem services as the silver bullet? A systematic review of how ecosystem services assessments impact biodiversity prioritisation in policy
Between aggrieved whiteness and class precarity
A key challenge faced by antiracist, feminist scholars engaging white working-class subjects is how to conceptualize and name class-related vulnerabilities while remaining critical of broader narratives of white victimhood/aggrieved whiteness that undergird contemporary forms of white supremacy. In this article, we draw on our respective research experiences studying white working-class communities in the US South to consider how to make conceptu…
Husbands’ knowledge and attendance at wives’ postpartum care among rural farmers
We examined husbands' knowledge and attendance at their wives' postpartum visit in a sample of rural husband-and-wife farmer dyads in central Malawi. A cross-sectional matched-pairs survey of 70 husband-and-wife farmer dyads, who lived in rural communities in Ntcheu district, and had a live birth in the past year was conducted. Data were collected using an interviewer-administered, structured postpartum questionnaire adapted from WHO Safe Motherh…
Social reproduction and capitalist production
This article offers a critical genealogy of the dominant imaginaries through which social reproduction, particularly in relation to capitalist production, has been examined in key feminist literatures since the 1960s. Feminist scholars have long observed that the distinction between production and social reproduction in capitalist societies manifests as an opposition between 'work' and 'home,' but they have implicitly envisioned and interpreted t…
Another Place Is Possible? Labor Geography, Spatial Dispossession, and Gendered Resistance in Central Appalachia
The demise of Fordism and inauguration of neoliberal policy regimes may be conceptualized as historical processes of spatial dispossession that diminish and sometimes destroy the collective spaces of working-class life. In central Appalachia, where miners’ militant, unionized brotherhood once influenced the geography of the bituminous coal industry and enabled the growth of active, working-class communities, spatial dispossession is especially st…

The Freedoms We Lost
Kurdish Refugee Reception Centers in Greece
Refugee campsites in Greece have provided temporary relief for hundreds of asylum seekers. At their peak, camp populations have exceeded over a thousand people, mainly Kurdish people seeking refugee status. In search of a better life, the people arrive in Greece by way of a smuggler's speedboat, a dilapidated ship, or crossing minefields. People often create functioning villages within the confines of the most difficult living situations. Their l…
We’re here to stay’
This article examines immigrants’ and long‐term residents’ intertwining practices of flexible labour and social reproduction in the American South. It analyses neoliberal globalisation's flexible‐labour demands through the body and social reproduction's spatial forms and politics through place, arguing for the centrality of these processes to both recent political shifts in the South and broader theorisations of globalisation and social reproduct…

Increasing the Proportion of Domestic Violence Arrests That Are Prosecuted
Research Summary: Mandatory and pro‐arrest policies in domestic violence incidents have increased strains on prosecutorial and court resources. They have also brought to prosecutors many cases in which victims never wanted batterers charged and prosecuted. Prosecutors are faced with the dilemma of (a) screening out difficult cases up front and expending resources on fewer but more winnable case or (b) prosecuting a larger number of cases as adequ…

Toward a Black Feminist Criticism
Synopsis When Black, feminist, lesbian writers have not been ignored, they have frequently been devalued. This is an attempt to break the ‘massive silence≐ which has surrounded the work of these women writers and to make some connections between the politics of Black women's lives, their subject matter, and their situation as artists. The way in which the writing of Black women has been treated by outsiders is discussed and the need for a Black f…
The Reactions of Prosecutors and Judges to Victim Impact Statements
This paper details the results of two studies that document the reactions of prosecutors and judges to victim impact statements. Criminal justice officials were asked for their views on the principle of introducing victim impact statements into the criminal justice system and were questioned about their experiences with a program to prepare and distribute victim impact statements. Both studies found that most prosecutors and judges support victim…

Reply to Deborah Chay
I read a few pages of it the day it arrived and when I saw what you were attempting to do I put it aside. I was already dealing with enough stress, including the fact that one of my dearest friends was dying of breast cancer, and I decided that reading your essay was one negative experience I could spare myself. At the beginning of March, 1993 I decided to look at the essay again because I recalled that if I was going to write a reply, it needed …

Image theory
Image theory has been proposed as a descriptive model of decision making. The present work examines the sufficiency of a simple counting rule as a theoretical description of the assessment of compatibility, a central construct in the theory. The research was done in the context of executives assessing the compatibility between plans for reaching a specified goal and the principles that guide the operation of their respective firms. First, for eac…
Racism and Women's Studies
Although my proposed topic is black women's studies, I have decided to focus my remarks in a different way. Given that this is a gathering of predominantly white women and given what has occurred during this conference, it makes much more sense to discuss the issue of racism: racism in women's studies and racism in the women's movement generally. Oh no, I can hear some of you groaning inwardly. Not that again. That's all we've talked about since …

The Expression of Social Values in the Writing of E. Nesbit
The Expression of Social Values in the Writing of E. Nesbit Barbara Smith (bio) Edith Nesbit Bland would no doubt have been considered an unconventional personality regardless of the era into which she happened to be born. She reached adulthood during the late Victorian age, however, and in that age she appeared remarkably advanced in her personal behavior and values. The most comprehensive biography-by Doris Langley Moore-traces Nesbit's strong …

Supply and Demand
A Press of Our Own Kitchen Table
If any one had asked in 1980 whether books by women of color could sell or whether a press that published only work by and about women of color could survive, the logical answer would have been no, especially if the person who answered the question was part of the commercial publishing establishment. Even less than a decade ago, writing by American Indian, African American, Latina, and Asian American women was barely noticed by literary and acade…
