Teaching a class on Christian Nationalism in the US at this moment is both really despairing, because it is hard to read all the white supremacy and patriarchy -- this is a toxic political movement -- and also really invigorating because I have a class of smart students grappling with this awfulness with me. #Sociology #SociologyOfReligion #HigherEd #USPol
In a recent post, the President of the American Sociological Association, Joya Misra, explained what #sociology is.

"Wealth inequality is one of the defining challenges of our time, yet class analysis – a fundamental pillar of sociology – has often had surprisingly little to say about it. Given this, Nora Waitkus explores how Marx, Weber and Bourdieu can each offer us ways to think about wealth inequality in a more nuanced way."
