Board member Daniel Cueto-Villalobos<\/a> covered new research from Alfredo Huante<\/a> on the process of gente<\/em>fication in Boyle Heights<\/a> and the tensions that arise when wealthy newcomers share long-term residents’ ethnic identity, but not their class position or skin tone.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Council on Contemporary Families’ blog<\/a> featured writing from Kenneth R. Hanson<\/a> on his research exploring why some people choose synthetic partners (sex dolls) over human ones<\/a>.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Episode seven of The Boston Globe’s Black News Hour<\/a> featured sociologist Saida Grundy<\/a>. Grundy spoke about social citizenship for Black Americans and the necessity of social change<\/a> in the episode which reflected on the tenth anniversary of Travyon Martin’s killing.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Last week we read Joseph Gusfield’s chapter “Two Genres of Sociology: A Literary Analysis of The American Occupational Structure and Tally\u2019s Corner”<\/a> together and reflected on long-form writing in sociology. As a board, we are interested in thinking about ways to incorporate more coverage of long-form sociological writing on the site since books are not always a good fit with some of our standard formats. Reading Gusfield together, we were focused on how writers in long-form have to choose an audience and decide what they can assume that audience knows about the topic at hand. This is something we think about a lot at The Society Pages<\/em>: who is our imagined audience, and what do we expect them to know? We’re always trying to strike a balance between making our writing as accessible as possible, to share sociological findings with a broad public, and keeping our pieces short and engaging.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Truth, Memory, and Solidarity with Ukraine<\/a> and A World Disappearing Before Our Eyes\u2026<\/a> from the Center for Holocaust and Genocide Studies<\/a>.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n <\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" New and Noteworthy Board member Daniel Cueto-Villalobos covered new research from Alfredo Huante on the process of gentefication in Boyle Heights and the tensions that arise when wealthy newcomers share long-term residents’ ethnic identity, but not their class position or skin tone.
