For @msnownews.bsky.social, I wrote an article about how ICE Watch is grounded in sociological theories of violence prevention. The reality is that most men will only commit public violence in extremely specific scenarios and ICE Watch disrupts the conditions necessary for escalation.

Opinion | I'm a Minneapolis sociologist who studies violence. Here's how ICE observers are helping.

Research into how violence occurs shows that disapproval from the people around you can help reduce it.

@tashnuvashaheen.bsky.social - emergency licensed special ed teachers more likely to work in self contained settings, less likely to work in inclusive settings; more likely to work with students with IDD and ASD. Such important findings regarding inequitable sorting of special ed teachers!

Discussions also encouraged students to reflect on their placements and we would brainstorm based on the kiddos they worked with

This concept of "deployment of disability" gets me thinking about how teachers are crucial gatekeepers to identification for supports and services, and on the flip side, also a key leverage point when thinking about disproportionality in disability ID. Plus, I love a vignette study.

Screenshot from an email that reads: NAEd and NCME File Lawsuit Against U.S. Department of Education Challenging Decision to Discontinue and Curtail Critical Educational Data Collections

Washington, D.C. — Today, the National Academy of Education (NAEd) and the National Council on Measurement in Education (NCME), represented by the Legal Defense Fund, jointly filed a lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Education. The lawsuit challenges the Department’s decision to cripple the collection of critical educational data—a move that significantly undermines evidence-informed research efforts to identify educational inequality as well as best practices which advance educational opportunities for all students.
