This article discusses a new forthcoming book on "the two-parent privilege" and quotes me. 😊 I'm not against marriage; I'm against framing marriage as an inherent inequality reducing mechanism. thecut.com/article/why-is-ev…

1/6 I make arguments about the importance of within-race heterogeneity. And in my academic talks, I argue addressing within race can help us to understand between-race. Panel data helps with this. An example. 👇🏾

Yes! Yes! Thanks Arielle!
Who has loans? People whose parents have a BA are most likely to have student loans - because they are most likely to go to college. But among college attenders, people whose parents have a HS degree are most likely to have loans (white is % of college attenders w/ loans)

Trying to reign in my kneejerk gender ideology takes, but this upcoming 16-dude-strong Power Manel at AEI on "the social breakdown" is just too must to resist! Sadly, includes 1 lady & a man named Leslie. Even dinosaurs have to bow to wokeness, I guess. aei.org/events/the-social-br…

All I'm saying is: Civil rights legislation was about *trying* to change the behaviors of people racialized as White rather than rectifying the structural conditions of people racialized as Black. Thus, racial inequality persists.

Norway's government spends nearly 60x as much as the US on supporting early childhood care. It's obscene how little public funding in the US is devoted to helping kids in their most formative years
