We're back for a panel on employment and housing, and we're getting started with IRP Emerging Poverty Scholar @Daniel2Auguste of @FAUArtsLetters discussing "Where You Start and Your Race Matter: Labor Market Inequlaity and the Entrepreneurship Earnings Penalty Puzzle."

IRP Emerging Poverty Scholar Dr. José Loya of @UCLALuskin is presenting his research on "Ethno-Racial and Relative Neighborhood Income Disparities in the Mortgage Market," showing how unequal access to homeownership is a major aspect of ethno-racial stratification & inequality.

Important research by Dr. Karina Chavarria of @csuci @UCLA_CSRC on "Legal Vulnerability at the CSU’s: Undocumented College Students’ Engagement with Campus Services" and how financial challenges & social exclusions shape awareness of, access to, and use of available supports.

It's not easy to be the final presenter of the day, but Dr. Andrea Gómez Cervantes @AndreaGC_soc of @wfsocdept @WakeForest is definitely holding our attention with her talk on "Esperando in Confinement: Liminal Illegality as Central American Women Await an Asylum Decision."
