Ok sociology, what do you think are genuine breakthroughs that our field has made. Contributions that might convince skeptical but sympathetic *academics* (not the public) of the value of our field? I'll brainstorm some of mine in the thread - I treat sociology very broadly

When I am too depleted to type whole sentences that express coherent thought, I too resort to meme.

The Ask Project has been interviewing Palestinians & Israelis on the ground for 12+ years. Each video, they focus on 1 question, for 1 demographic. No edits at all. It's very interesting. Sometimes hopeful, sometimes sad. This one is in the West Bank. www.youtube.com/watch?v=9xWG...

UNWRA teachers who actually work for HAMAS
