\"\"Welcome back to a sociology-filled week at TSP! This week we’ve got research on why the Indian Child Welfare Act matters, how skin tone is related to arrest and incarceration for black Americans, and sociological takes on the recent synagogue shooting in Pittsburgh. And don’t forget to send us your submissions for\u00a0The \u2018Teach with TSP\u2019 Contest<\/a>\u00a0by the end of the month!<\/p>\n

There\u2019s Research on That!<\/a>:<\/h3>\n

“Immigration, Race, and Welfare Attitudes in Europe<\/a>,” by\u00a0Neeraj Rajasekar<\/a>.\u00a0Based on several European countries’ public discussion about harsher restrictions on migrants\u2019 access to social assistance, we collected research on welfare attitudes and immigration in Europe.<\/p>\n

“Why the Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA) Matters<\/a>,” by\u00a0Brieanna Watters<\/a> and Allison Nobles<\/a>. In light of a federal judge ruling ICWA unconstitutional, we rounded up social science research\u00a0about the historical context necessitating ICWA\u2019s creation, with respect to the problematic history of child removal from Native communities.<\/p>\n

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

“Race, Colorism, and the Criminal Justice System<\/a>,” by\u00a0Neeraj Rajasekar<\/a>. New research in\u00a0Ethnic and Racial Studies\u00a0<\/em>finds that black Americans with darker skin tones are more likely to be incarcerated and arrested than those with lighter skin tones.<\/p>\n

“Protecting Places of Worship<\/a>,” by Brooke Chambers<\/a>.\u00a0In a new article<\/a> in <\/span>The Conversation<\/span><\/i>, <\/span>Christopher Scheitle<\/span><\/a> and <\/span>Jeffery Ulmer<\/span><\/a> analyze increased protections and the heightened fear among many religious minorities in their spaces of worship.<\/span><\/p>\n
