Powerful call to action by @VivianT88 @wtgrantfdn urging researchers to step up during this pandemic and prioritize the specific and immediate needs of decision-makers.

[Institute for Policy Research at Northwestern @IPRatNU]

In a study, IPR sociologist @ispa_landa explores how anger and optimism can help those with a criminal record resist stigma and negative labels. https://t.co/Wd6sAhEhnF

She is not on twitter much, but I am so proud of @sara_e_thomas for defending her excellent dissertation on adolescent sexual and romantic health and consent this morning! @sesp_nu

My latest: A comparison of teachers' implicit racial bias with non-teachers. Conclusion: Teachers are people too, need supports to implement equity strategies!

On different days, different aspects of this situation strike me as nearly unbearable, in terms of what they say about the health of our democratic institutions. The Wisconsin primary fiasco was one. Amidst it all, this news brings me (very) minor solace: https://t.co/GxEhjYtwnx

[Simone Ispa-Landa @ispa_landa]

Really excited to read this!

The pandemic is exposing the risks and costs of inequality as never before. "Crowded conditions not only increases the risk of infection but can also impose serious emotional and mental health costs” says @Stefanie_DeLuca. @just_shelter @JasonDeParle https://t.co/p1iaea6ynH

Distributing school meals puts workers, parents and kids at undue risk. Replace them with food vouchers. It's called Pandemic-EBT. So far only Michigan has been approved to use it. ALL states should have Pandemic-EBT! https://t.co/6R5TdZUX33

@nkwarikoo @DumiLM that would be great! I hope you are safe & healthy...

[Simone Ispa-Landa @ispa_landa]

I've always wanted more research on how suburban schools serve students of color (like by @DumiLM). Here,
@CapehartJ notes how national conversations about suburban voters assume a white person, and that's erroneous. See the parallel? Check it out: https://t.co/qIDkiicfzo

@ShaynaMSilvers me too

[Dr.barbara risman @bjrisman]

And new research forthcoming in @Gend_Soc by @lb_hodges shows we have a benefits gap too!
