Welcome to my blog!

I've been a Sociology Professor for the last 25 years and I currently reside and teach in Florida. I've also taught at universities in Arizona and Montana, and all the views expressed in this blog are mine alone, unrelated to employers past or present...  Most of my interests, both academic and personal, revolve around issues of race & ethnicity, politics, health, sport and science. For fun I enjoy swimming and travel. 

 

The purpose of this blog is to combine current issues, sociological concepts, and my own personal experiences to offer a critique of our modern social landscape.  As for current issues, I attempt to post about happenings, mostly, but not exclusively in America, that are of interest to many social observers.  Sociology, as a debunking science, informs much of my writing.  In particular, I am interested in Public Sociology, the goal of which is to engage non-academic audiences in critical discussions of social issues typically confined to the academic world.  Additionally, my own personal experiences, ranging from travel to self-study, to discussions with intellectuals of all stripes, along with my formal academic training, drive my interest in creating this blog.  Whether you are a professional sociologist, an "amateur sociologist", as many people consider themselves, or someone who is looking for tools to help decipher our social landscape, I hope you find this blog useful!
