It was an honor to listen to @darializaforny.bsky.social's wisdom as she engaged in conversation with @nickocchiuto.bsky.social: "As sociologists what is the point of studying society if we're not going to be active members in it? Care is at the heart of what we do." #BoycottASA

I am so blown away by the incredible organizing that @soc4pal.bsky.social has done, not just to mobilize against the @ASAnews’s decision to pick Israel’s interests over member democracy, but to organize a whole rad alternate conference!! See so many of you Monday!

The @soc4pal.bsky.social alternate conference is everything that academia should be. It's rigorous yet warm, it's fully of energy. It's cross-generational. The sessions are vibrant and exciting. I'm so touched that folks organized this, and in awe because organizing a conference is a herculean task.

We are finally seeing ASA leadership recognize the ASA meeting boycott and its impacts, to the point where they're extending the deadline to June 15, and committing to an early council meeting to "work towards a resolution." Keep up the pressure! As we've been saying, boycotts work!
We look forward to seeing many members in New York in August for the 2026 ASA Annual Meeting. It is shaping up to be an engaging meeting, and we're excited about the program that has come together.

We extend a sincere thank you to the many volunteers who have contributed their time and energy to making this program possible by organizing panels, reviewing submissions, and supporting the meeting in so many ways. These efforts are meaningful and truly appreciated.

We understand that some members are choosing to boycott the meeting, while others plan to participate in person as originally intended. If your paper was accepted, you will have a scheduled room and time to present as listed in the online program. This includes sessions where organizers, presiders, or other panelists have chosen not to participate, even if fewer papers are ultimately presented. Please note that to have a presentation count as part of the 2026 Annual Meeting, participants must be registered and follow ASA registration policies, including those for remote presentations.

The registration deadline for participants listed on the online Annual Meeting program has been extended to Monday, June 15 to provide additional time to consider the information shared in this email. If you intend to present at the Annual Meeting as scheduled, please register by June 15 (before 11:59 p.m. EST).

Finally, we know this has been a challenging period for our association, and we sincerely appreciate your patience and continued engagement. Your feedback and concerns are being heard and taken seriously. We, along with Council, have been listening closely and are engaged in ongoing, thoughtful conversations about how best to move forward. Council will meet in June, ahead of its regularly scheduled August meeting, to support this ongoing effort to work toward a resolution.

Please reach out to us directly if you have questions.

Best,
Heather M. Washington
ASA Executive Director
Shelley J. Correll
ASA President

In this interactive session, attendees will have the opportunity to engage S4P organizers directly on issues including boycott logistics, tactics and strategy, and support of junior scholars.

Though the panelists will provide brief preliminary remarks on why they joined S4P and support the boycott, the emphasis will be on a collective give and take. In doing so, we hope to create a space that prefigures the kind of democratic association we want the ASA to be.
