Uncovering geographic variations in HIV burden and prevention
Despite advancements in HIV prevention and treatment, disparities persist across the U.S. that are geographically and demographically unique. This study analyzed HIV burden and prevention efforts in three urban counties, Suffolk County, MA (Boston), Orange County, FL (Orlando), and Philadelphia County, PA (Philadelphia), using AIDSVu data. We assessed HIV prevalence, new diagnoses, Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) use, PrEP-to-Need Ratio (PnR), an…
Teaching Anthropology in Polarizing Times
In this article, I describe how teaching anthropology in polarizing times can potentially impact instructors. Using Florida as an example, I show how polarizing political contexts can embolden students to challenge faculty and coursework they view as ideologically incompatible with their own perspectives. These scenarios may result in some students engaging in what I refer to as “weaponized aggrievement”: leveraging the sentiment of feeling “wron…
Academic Institutional Barriers and Facilitators to Community-Based Participatory Research
Background: Collaborative research between researchers and community members can meaningfully address public health concerns. Collaboration can be complicated, however, due to unanticipated challenges stemming from academic institutions. This article describes how academic institutions can hinder and facilitate community-based research. Objectives: We evaluated a research partnership focused on structural determinants of COVID-19 vaccine hesitanc…

Newspaper Media Framing of the Immigrant Workforce in the Context of Florida's 2023 Immigration Law
In 2023, Florida Senate Bill (SB) 1718 was covered by national newspapers, as the issue of immigration enforcement was a key issue during the presidential campaign. Examining SB 1718 through the lens of crimmigration, or how immigration law and criminal matters increasingly converge and overlap, reveals that such laws aim to criminalize undocumented immigrants. Media framing shapes public perceptions about immigrants' perceived otherness, and the…

Typical Sources and Locations of Marijuana among US Young Adults
Background: With the widespread legalization of cannabis and use among all age groups, location and source of cannabis remains to be researched, especially among minority populations. Methods: We pooled data from the 2018–2019 National Survey on Drug Use and Health and investigated differences by sexual minority status of where individuals obtained cannabis. Results: Results found that gay/lesbian and bisexual individuals who reported use were mo…

Governing with contagion
The United States approached the COVID-19 pandemic with inconsistent responses that varied by state. In Florida, legislators passed laws contrary to mitigating the pandemic. These laws included banning county and municipal efforts to control the spread of COVID-19 through mask mandates, social distancing, and prohibiting vaccination mandates during infectious disease epidemics. Moreover, the Legislature simultaneously prioritized policies of soci…

Stakeholders’ perspectives on system-level barriers to and facilitators of HPV vaccination among Hispanic migrant farmworkers
Findings suggest that multi-level interventions should be developed to leverage existing facilitators while addressing system-level barriers, ultimately creating a supportive environment for HPV vaccine initiation and completion among this marginalized population comprised of individuals living in migrant farmworker communities
Organizing for Black Lives and Funding Covid-19 Relief
Structural racism is a root cause of poor health in the United States and underlies COVID-19–related disparities for Black and Latinx populations. We describe how one community-based organization responded to structural racism and COVID-19 in Florida. Informed by the literature on how public health practice changed from emphasizing prevention (Public Health 1.0) to collaboration between governmental and public health agencies (Public Health 2.0) …
Preventing the Spread of Covid-19 in Immigration Detention Centers Requires the Release of Detainees
Immigration detention centers are densely populated facilities in which restrictive conditions limit detainees’ abilities to engage in social distancing or hygiene practices designed to prevent the spread of COVID-19. With tens of thousands of adults and children in more than 200 immigration detention centers across the United States, immigration detention centers are likely to experience COVID-19 outbreaks and add substantially to the population…
Sexual Consent Communication among Sexual and Gender Minority College Students
Sexual scripts and consent communication methods are seldom explored outside of heterosexual, cisgender relationships. To date, little research has been conducted to determine how sexual and gender minority (SGM) students conceptualize and communicate consent. This study explored SGM undergraduate students’ (n = 81) sexual consent communication scripts using open-ended survey items. We conducted a thematic freelisting analysis to assess the domai…
Policing Race and Performing State Power
In the United States, undocumented Latinx immigrants' precarious social positions are rooted in aggressive immigration enforcement practices that create a contestant threat of detection and deportation. This threat extends into the US interior, and in some US cities, immigrant policing practices rely on law enforcement officers racially profiling Latinx immigrants. Several social scientists have described the numerous consequences of racially-bas…
Rethinking Covid-19 Vulnerability
Public health responses to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic have emphasized older adults' vulnerability, but this obfuscates the social and political root causes of health inequity. To advance health equity during a novel communicable disease outbreak, public health practitioners must continue to be attentive to social and political circumstances that inform poor health. Such efforts are especially needed for populations who are e…
Social Determinants of Health and Health Disparities
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic in the United States provides yet another example of the enduring and pernicious effect of social determinants of health (SDH) on African American communities. SDH, as defined by the Healthy People 2020 SDH framework, include domains of economic stability, education, social and community context, health and health care, and neighborhood and built environment.1 Within each domain, key areas represen…
Pathogenic Policing
The relationship between undocumented immigrants and law enforcement officials continues to be a politically contentious topic in the United States. Nolan Kline focuses on the hidden, health-related impacts of immigrant policing to examine the role of policy in shaping health inequality in the U.S., and responds to fundamental questions regarding biopolitics, especially how policy can reinforce ‘race’ as a vehicle of social division. He argues th…
When deservingness policies converge
As immigration and health policy continue to be contentious topics globally, anthropologists must examine how policy creates notions of health-related deservingness, which may have broad consequences. This paper explores hidden relationships between immigration enforcement laws and the most recent health reform law in the United States, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA), which excludes immigrants from certain types of health se…
Migration and Health
Migration and health is a diverse topic that encompasses numerous definitions, theoretical approaches, and social circumstances on a global scale. The term refers to several health‐related situations involving rural‐to‐urban migrants, undocumented immigrants, refugees, political asylum seekers, and internally displaced persons, representing a range of situations rooted in a variety of historic, political, and economic contexts. Anthropologists ha…
Multi-level determinants to HPV vaccination among Hispanic farmworker families in Florida
Background: HPV vaccination is the primary prevention method for HPV-related cancers, although among Hispanic populations, migrant farmworkers may experience exacerbated challenges to HPV vaccination due to intersecting political, social, and personal contexts. This study explored multi-level determinants of HPV vaccination among Hispanic migrant farmworker families. Methods: Using a community-engaged approach and guided by the socio-ecological m…
Pathogenic Policy
Medical anthropology has a vital role in identifying health-related impacts of policy. In the United States, increasingly harsh immigration policies have formed a multilayered immigrant policing regime comprising state and federal laws and local police practices, the effects of which demand ethnographic attention. In this article, I draw from ethnographic fieldwork in Atlanta, Georgia, to examine the biopolitics of immigrant policing. I underscor…

The Forgotten Farmworkers of Apopka, Florida
Anthropology's crisis of representation of the 1980s has given way to a millennial crisis of involvement. As neoliberal policies proliferate and intensify wealth and social inequalities, anthropologists have considered ways to conduct engaged research that can contribute to social justice. One possibility is the prospect of collaboration between anthropologists and activists. In this article we examine our own collaborative research with an anthr…
Disparate Power and Disparate Resources
This article highlights the collaboration between an evangelical faith-based organization and secular activist organization to address the oral health needs of African American former farmworkers in Central Florida. Highlighting the FBO's evangelistic agenda, I discuss one FBO as a charitable health care provider filling a service gap within the broader health care system. In addition, I discuss the organizations' different levels of access to po…

There's Nowhere I Can Go to Get Help, and I Have Tooth Pain Right Now
This article explores the syndemic interaction between poverty, food insecurity, and limited access to dental care among migrant farm laborers in Central Florida. Although a great deal of syndemic research examines the role of pathogen-pathogen interaction (PPI; Singer ; Ventura and Mehra ), social factors, such as poverty, may be of greater importance than the pathogens that infect the body (Singer and Clair ) and demand increased research and p…

Life, Death, and Dialysis
Anthropological research on policy and health underscores how policy reflects cultural ideologies and results in marginalizing specific populations. Ethnographic inquiry can further reveal the broader, unexpected effects of policy change. In this article, I describe how state legislators in Georgia revised an existing entitlement program to specifically exclude undocumented immigrants with kidney failure from receiving life-sustaining care.

Assessing the 2010 Affordable Care Act
In March of 2010, President Obama signed into law the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act (known together as the Affordable Care Act or ACA). The largest legislative overhaul of the US health care system since the expansion of the Social Security Act in the 1960s, it invoked a fierce national debate about the elements required for reform. Many of the ACA's provisions do not take effect u…

Transdisciplinary Women's Health
Various women's health concerns (e.g., hormonal changes, cardiovascular disease, diabetes mellitus, osteoporosis, immune deficiencies, respiratory diseases, eating disorders, substance use/abuse, sexually transmitted infections, stress, poverty, poor nutrition, and early childhood caries) are associated with oral-systemic etiologies that can either cause or form as a result of poor oral health. Nonetheless, the intersections of biological, social…
