In this talk, Dr. Acosta explores the strategies that mixed-race (and racially minoritized) stepfamilies led by lesbian, bisexual, transgender and queer parents use to make themselves intelligible as family to others. Based on interview data with parents from more than 40 families before and after the SCOTUS Obergefell ruling, Dr. Acosta highlights how these families’ strategies vary not only based on their racial composition, but also on the…

Black professionals frequently encounter competency microaggressions in the workplace, characterized by comments and behaviors that suggest low expectations of their abilities, casting doubt on their qualifications, or eliciting surprise when they demonstrate competence. While existing research has documented the prevalence of workplace racial microaggressions, coping strategies, and their effects on job satisfaction, there is a dearth of…

This talk will highlight and discuss the importance of intersectionality when examining racism at a HPWI (historically, predominately white institution). Black undergraduate women experience both racism and sexism simultaneously, or what Black feminists call gendered racism. HPWI’s are white-centric spaces but are also sites for patriarchy and male domination. Higher education scholars and race scholars must shift the discourse intersectionality…

Young Americans expect to form egalitarian partnerships in which both partners work for pay and perform unpaid housework and childcare. Yet, working couples’ realities often deviate from this ideal, with women trading off paid work to take on unpaid family care. Will contemporary young professionals in different-gender relationships repeat this pattern, or will they follow different trajectories as they launch and build careers, maintain…
