I could be wrong, but I don’t think we’ve fully reckoned w/how much the Trump agenda is rooted in racial grievance. Every day, we’re seeing the full force of white identity politics in action. Wild how much of it is just taken for granted, at least from where I sit. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/12/a...

agree 💯 and working on a paper right now with @gordonhodsonphd.bsky.social in which we stress the importance of addressing the racialized elements of "political polarization" (and for which we reference one of your 538 pieces) 🙏🏻

Yes! Thank goodness you’re doing this work. Was so grateful for this piece by @dkreiss.bsky.social and @shannimcg.bsky.social, but so much more needed! journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10....
