\nHappy Friday everyone! We hope you are staying warm<\/a> and getting close to wrapping up your fall semesters. We have some great new pieces this week, including a new podcast episode with Vanesa Ribas and a new special feature by Penny Edgell. As we head into the break, in addition to posting new pieces every week as usual, we will be highlighting our “Best Of 2016” nominees from around the site, so keep an eye out for great stuff you may have missed throughout the year.<\/p>\n

TSP Special Features<\/a>:<\/h3>\n

“Seeing the White in Christian America<\/a>,” by Penny Edgell<\/a>. In this new special feature, Edgell explains how race, over and above religion, drove white evangelicals to vote for Trump. She argues that blanket statements about “evangelicals” that ignore differences between white and non-white Christians can work to perpetuate a culture of white privilege that systematically denies that whites, too, have racial identities and interests.<\/p>\n

Office Hours<\/a>:<\/h3>\n

“Vanesa Ribas on Immigration to the New South<\/a>,” with Erik Kojola<\/a>. In our most recent podcast, we talk with Ribas about her new book that examines race and labor dynamics in a meat packing plant in rural North Carolina.<\/p>\n

There’s Research on That!<\/a>:<\/h3>\n

“Who (Dis)Trusts Science?<\/a>,” by Caty Taborda-Whitt<\/a>. Research shows that\u00a0trust in science is much more closely linked to political and religious commitments than educational attainment.<\/p>\n

Discoveries<\/a>:<\/h3>\n

“Stigma by Association: Adult Children and Parental Incarceration<\/a>,” by Amber Joy Powell<\/a>.\u00a0Are adult children able to create a prosocial identity outside of their parents\u2019 felony status? New research in\u00a0Deviant Behavior<\/em> says yes.<\/p>\n

Clippings<\/a>:<\/h3>\n

“Supermarkets and Stratification<\/a>,” by Caity Curry<\/a>. The\u00a0Rivard Report\u00a0<\/em>highlights research from\u00a0Heather O\u2019Connell<\/a>, Jenifer Bratter<\/a>, and\u00a0Lester King<\/a>\u00a0that finds a “tri-racial system of social stratification” in terms of access to supermarkets in Houston, TX.<\/p>\n
