The central concerns of my research and teaching include: labor and class formation, racialization, the production of urban space, nationalism, the politics of citizenship, and transnational social processes, especially migration. My ethnographic research explores the social productions of racialized and spatialized difference in the experiences of transnational Mexican migrant workers within the space of the U.S. nation-state. More specifically, I examine transnational urban conjunctural spaces that link the U.S. and Latin America as a standpoint of critique from which to interrogate U.S. nationalism, political economy, racialized citizenship, and immigration law. This work contributes to a reconceptualization of Latin American, Latino, and "American" (U.S.) Studies. Likewise, I am interested in the methodological problems of ethnographic research practice and the limits of anthropological disciplinary forms of knowledge and modes of representation.

What are the conditions under which Columbia is accredited? I'm sure there are some. Does their failure to do anything about this maniac violate any of them? Perhaps it's possible to have Columbia's accreditation revoked if they don't act.

[68skylark]

Really, we're the taxpayers. We ought to have a little say in how our money gets spent.

Whoa -- careful there friend. That's a pretty radical suggestion, and there are plenty of Democrats who beg to differ with you!

I like you're thinking, however.

As long as rich parents continue to send their kids to schools like Columbia, and continue to give money to the alumni associations, wankers like this will continue to spread their nastiness.

You ROCK, my friend!

[Coyote]

And I'm interested in the epistemology of pale, pithy, ultra-pedantic, quasi-intellectual chondriacs, who suffered so much the Freudian trauma under the infant lavatory instruction of their own pedestrian mammon, that such individuals mature unable to commit coitus with any bodies other than inflatable synthetic dolls, or under the physical dominance from those of their own gender, and subsequently manifest such infinite hatred and spite for all men of honest virility and real courage, that only irrational bitterness remain in their personalities toward all other persons, institutions, and cultural cannons of true good will, and otherwise all authority in general, especially the honorable historic national influence that affords the diminutive, self-affected, personally unachievable psyche of the archetypal Columbia University Social Science gutter gas-bag, with their liberty, opportunity, and sustenance a priory.

[Dr. Scarpetta]

Conservatives should audit his class if the university allows it.

[Sally II]

Is there a photo of this guy?

[wasp69]

bump for later FReeping

[stanz]

Or in other words, piss-ant pansies ought to keep their treasonous mouths shut.

[sport]

Good idea.
I will write my Congressman with the same suggestion.

Both my senators are democrats and I would not ask them to pi$$ on me if I was on fire.

[stanz]

I couldn't post his photo, but if you cut and paste this url, you'll see his bearded face.

[Sally II]

Thanks. The link took me right to the front page of the columbia spectator. By from there I did a search on his name and found this photo.

[stanz]

I had found that photo and saved it as an HTML picture, but when I tried to post it as an image, it would not work.
Well, at least you got it.

[ZULU]

It looks like he crawled back out from under that rock he was hiding under.

The people to pressure are our Congressmen to cut off all aid to government monies to Columbia as long as this traitor is on the payroll, and to the left-wing elitist University Administative jackels who employ this idiot.

[LanPB01]

People like this guy make me sick. I'm sure that, in his mind, he's doing his part to help "free the black man from the tyranny of centuries of white oppression" with his works. In reality, I'm sure he views these oppressed people almost as pets, as they provide a nice little diversion and interesting music for him to study. What a jerk.

WANKER WANKER WANKER

BWAHAHAHAHA!!!

[Rockitz]

Let's nail him on some "Hate Crime" statute! I suggested this when it first happened.
