Welcome back, sociology-friends. As we mourn the loss of Anthony Bourdain this week, we reflect on his legacy as an honorary sociologist of sorts. We also highlight new research on sexual behavior and identities, and the persistence of racial segregation in the United States.

Discoveries:

Clippings:
