Also, it doesn't escape me that "American" conveniently stretches North for U.S. institutions but rarely South. 😒. I wonder why that is.

This is a small act, but I think everyone should have to confront this fact, so I'm planning to write a statement to read before my ASA talk. If anyone wants to brainstorm and/or write their own, I would love to collaborate, especially if you are personally impacted by this.
ASA in Canada next year and having the theme emphasize “liberatory praxis” is so ironic given how no undocumented student researchers will be able to participate in-person.

This thread by @janelillylopez is as important as the article 🧵.
I know so many families are relieved at this long-awaited relief. Their lives will be drastically changed with the right to live and work in the US. I am so happy that they will experience this much-needed relief from punitive immigration laws.
