To follow-up on attending Patricia Gurin's moving lecture & award ceremony yesterday: in a way, much of my work is a result of being one of the kids sitting on a front porch (in my case in Appalachia) looking for a way to make sense of the world she spoke about during her talk.
Toward the end of undergrad I wanted to pursue meaningful work & use my developing sociological imagination & tools. I went to the library & came across a (then) recently published book about why diversity & inclusion mattered for higher ed used in a SCOTUS case.
Trying to figure out a final project for my degree, this book provided me with insight on what I was witnessing on my small college campus. People debated, but didn't engage in dialogue. Inequality & marginalization was normalized despite their peers, even friends being affected.
