I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

New paper with @fabriberna.bsky.social - part of my PhD thesis!

→ When high-SES parents separate, they lose their ability to compensate for their child’s low genetic propensity for education 🧬👪
“SES, Genes & Differential Effects of Parental Separation on Educational Attainment”: @fabriberna.bsky.social & @gaiaghirardi.bsky.social find the largest penalty for “high-SES students whose parents separate is…among those w/ a low PGI EA.” @eui-eu.bsky.social read.dukeupress.edu/demography/a...
