I read a draft of this from @profince.bsky.social a while back, but it's changed for the better in revisions. This is a really useful engagement, critique, and extension of my theory that I'm going to have to cite a bunch. journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1...

I am glad to see this article in print! Here, we build a bridge between institutional theory and the theory of racialized organizations to draw attention to how social interactions provide a dynamic view of racialization in and by organizations. Check it out: journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

Check out this awesome new article engaging sociology with two giants of Black feminist thought! Thank you @profince.bsky.social and @coreyjmiles.bsky.social ~
It was a delight to build this with Corey! I am grateful for his desire to join with me to trouble sociology’s focus on presentism, its inattention to the wake, the ethnographic obsession with observing/recording, and how that obfuscates the representation of black life.
excited about this new paper, where @profince.bsky.social pulls me in to think about what does research look like outside of always assuming black disparity and then indexing our way to knowable facts of blackness. what does it mean not to solely be interested in black people but to care for them.
