I continue to work with colleagues on refugee mental health, civic engagement, and economic integration. I am currently following up two recent articles on sport as cultural capital with a study on the emergence of strong class differences in adult sport and fitness activities between 1965 and 1975, and a study exploring race and social class differences in fitness activities and the health benefits of such activities. In political sociology, I am working on a race-class study of white identity politics.
My main teaching interests are Sociology of Sport, Marriage and Sex, Sociological Theory, and Political Sociology.
