Critical Perspectives introduction "Whither Politics & Gender Research? Reflections on US Election 2024" by Kira Sanbonmatsu, Kelly Dittmar and Paru Shah.
Article begins: "The 2024 elections made US history in numerous ways. Vice President Kamala Harris became the first Black and South Asian woman to be nominated by a major party for the presidency. Former president Donald Trump made history by becoming the oldest person and the first convicted felon to become president. 2024 marked the first presidential election following the historic Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization decision in 2022.

We asked leading experts in the field to reflect on the gender and racial dynamics of the 2024 election cycle and consider which aspects of the election are illuminated by gender scholarship. We asked what theories help explain the dynamics of the campaigns, voting behavior, and the outcome, as well as which election aspects were unanticipated."

This torn, bent, rained-on, coffee-stained name tag will be a treasured memento of an amazing experience organizing the inaugural (we hope!) @politicsgenderj.bsky.social conference!

A huge thanks to the whole @ruwomenpolitics.bsky.social team for their hard work in making it a success! ♀️🔥💕

Politics and Gender Conference at Rutgers University, Summer 2025- first ever. So proud to be a member of this community and believe gender matters (even more) as it becomes a cloak for fascist regimes to gain political support worldwide @politicsgenderj.bsky.social
