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. https://t.co/ovalkA18Fh

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. https://t.co/kgZHX2dvPs

Great profile in the NYT of the one and only @janellecj, formerly Chief Economist at the US Department of Labor, now Chief Economist at the Service Employees International Union.

[Deadric T. Williams @doc_thoughts]

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.

Trouble filling the large number of teacher vacancies reflects a steep decline in the overall circumstances facing the teaching profession, via @EconomicPolicy's Katherine deCourcy

The strong decline in teacher well-being since 2010 coincides with the rising number of teaching vacancies.

Poor compensation and highly stressful working conditions are driving teachers out of the classroom. https://t.co/8775NpPjd8
