I am happy to say that our article, "Racial Inequality in War," is now officially published in the @apsrjournal.
I made a detailed post about this piece months ago. Please take a look at that... and ideally, at the full article. We're very proud of it.

Forthcoming in @apsrjournal with Connor Huff and Robert Schub:
Converting and analyzing over 40,000 U.S. infantry fatalities from World War I, we examine how race and racism influenced who bore the costs of conflict. A thread below for those interested.

Dying in combat is awful, yet this type of "heroic" sacrifice has historically been a way that marginalized communities have made political gains in the fight for equality. In WWI, many Black soldiers died in hospitals and after the war had ended—conditions not seen as valorous.
