The aggressive immigration raids we now see across the nation began 10 months ago in California's Central Valley. Their impact on children, families, and communities is an important & active area of research

I'm pleased my study of the initial raid's early impact on students is now out in @pnas.org

In this study, Hamilton, L. et al. (2025) find that White students respond to the high concentration of Latine students at HSIs with “white flight,” contributing to racial segregation in higher ed.

Didn't make the article but key point is, what if I told you that there was legislation in the 1800s that gave millions of dollars to HBCUs? Then what if I said it was being done to ensure that other insts never had to integrate?

Now you can see what this is

PHC on embodying academic excellence:

-Always be self-critical of your work
-Don’t give up on the questions(s) that motivate you
-Be experimental, engage in “intellectual care work”
-Stay on your own path.. don’t wait around for the topic or the method of the day. Be epistemologically free #ASA2025

Inchoate thoughts from some reading:

Rich white dudes are ferocious about attacking on Black women’s material base — public sector employment — and cultural capital — online etc — right now because they think we radicalized white women

New study with @bcmurray.bsky.social shows effect of school race on parents perceptions of multiple dimensions of safety.

White parents rate Black, Latine, & Asian schools as socioemotionally unsafe, Black & Latine schools as violent & disorderly, Black schools as biologically unsafe.

🚸 “Safety” isn’t race-neutral.

In this #Socius study, Drs. @chantalahailey.bsky.social & @bcmurray.bsky.social show how White parents interpret school #safety through racialized lenses—fueling #RacialBias and #schoolsegregation in #education.

Parents prioritize multiple dimensions of safety in their school selections. And school racial composition shapes their beliefs about potential schools' safety.

📢 New article in AERAOpen

I find families prioritize multiple aspects of safety—neighborhood and school violence & disorder, school climate, metal detectors—when selecting schools.

Safety priorities vary by student race and academic achievement.

When I say they hope to overturn the Civil Rights Act I get looked at like I’ve lost my critical faculties.

But here is Rufo, in the New York Times, saying they want to overturn the Civil Rights Act (and use anti-discrimination law to protect white people).
And so here it is all laid out. The intention to overturn the Civil
Rights Act,to dismantle the Dept of Education, to bankrupt leading universities, to replace liberal arts education w/something that conservatives haven’t created & don’t have the educators to create. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/07/o...

For The Emancipator, I expanded on an argument I’ve been making on Bluesky. The so-called anti-DEI movement is segregationist, and we should state that plainly.

Eliminating DEI isn't just racist — it's segregationist
New segregationists’ need to use euphemisms shows the weakness of their intellectual position and the Civil Rights Movement’s moral clarity.

Excited to share my new article in @sfjournal.bsky.social ! Using a survey experiment with 995 families, I show how race shapes beliefs about school safety. White, Asian, and Latine families perceive Black schools as less safe—even when safety ratings are identical. #Education #Race
