Clinical and demographic characteristics of participants in a hepatitis C treatment trial in rural Kentucky
INTRODUCTION: The advent of curative direct acting antiviral (DAA) drugs to treat those actively infected with the hepatitis C virus (HCV) has allowed for discussion around HCV elimination. Restrictive state-by-state policies for the coverage of DAAs for Medicaid recipients may hamper elimination efforts in the United States by limiting access to these curative treatments. METHODS: The purpose of the current analysis was to examine the sociodemog…
Jailbreak of the Imagination
Rooted in the freedom dreams of Black political movements across diasporas, abolition has emerged as a framework for the study and practice of building a world without captivity. Anthropologists of social movements have attended to the dreamers and destroyers doing this work, turning an analytic eye to the practice of abolition among community organizers, high school students, immigrant rights advocates, and queer activists. As the discipline fla…

Black Feminist Citational Praxis and Disciplinary Belonging
What does a Black feminist citational practice look and feel like? This contribution to the #CiteBlackWomen colloquy focuses on two arguments: First, that Black feminist citational praxis is one of the major interventions Black women scholars contribute to the academy; and second, that anthropology's neglect and erasure of Black feminist anthropologists relates to disciplinary (un)belonging. I explore how citation and 'disciplinary belonging' inf…

A Note of Gratitude for Leith
Bianca Williams writes a note of gratitude to Leith Mullings, retracing many moments that they shared together.

The Pursuit of Happiness
In The Pursuit of Happiness Bianca C. Williams traces the experiences of African American women as they travel to Jamaica, where they address the perils and disappointments of American racism by looking for intimacy, happiness, and a connection to their racial identities. Through their encounters with Jamaican online communities and their participation in trips organized by Girlfriend Tours International, the women construct notions of racial, se…
"Giving Back" to Jamaica
What can African Americans and Jamaicans learn about race, diaspora, and difference as they encounter one another in tourist spaces? How do their nationalized understandings and performances of Blackness inhibit or facilitate the creation of diasporic community and connectivity? Based on ethnographic research in multiple cities in Jamaica and the United States, this article examines how a group of African American tourist women, and Jamaicans the…
Sitting at the Kitchen Table
This text explores the difficulties faced by faculty of color, particularly women of color, in the academy. Building on existing literature on these issues, the authors deploy their experiences in the academy to argue for transformative work to be done in order to make academia-and anthropology in particular-more inclusive
Lived employment experiences of college students and graduates with physical disabilities in the United States
This phenomenological study aims at understanding lived experiences of college seniors and recent college graduates with physical disabilities seeking employment opportunities after graduation in the USA The extensive interviews revealed that participants' attitudes about and experiences with disability are diverse (pain to pride, denied accommodation to support); their major areas of concern are their own marketable skills and credentials as wel…

The accuracy of the National Death Index when personal identifiers other than Social Security number are used
This study analyzed the accuracy of the National Death Index when personal identifiers were used that included or excluded Social Security number. Computerized records of the Department of Veterans Affairs were used for comparison. Different combinations of identifiers other than Social Security number correctly identified from 83 to 92 percent of dead and 92 to 99 percent of living persons. These results should prove useful in ascertaining the m…
A Class Act
This article reviews anthropological studies of the "invention" or construction of ethnicity and nationhood. It argues that "ethnicity" and "nation" are not natural or primordial units but are historically constructed and malleable categories. The article examines how anthropologists have approached the study of ethnicity and nationhood, focusing on the ways in which these categories are used to create and maintain social boundaries and power rel…
