Open Heart Surgery: Let Me Tell Y’all A Quick Story
Dr. Jenn Jackson – I grew up in Oakland, CA with my single mom. My dad was in and out of my life. Mostly out. We struggled a lot. My family struggled and continues to struggle.
Jenn M. Jackson
[su_boxbox title=”About”]Jenn M. Jackson is a doctoral candidate in the Department of Political Science at the University of Chicago where she has also received a graduate certificate in Gender and Sexuality Studies. She will be joining the Syracuse University Department of Political Science as an Assistant Professor in August 2019. Jenn’s research is in Black Politics with a focus on group threat, gender and sexuality, public opinion, political psychology, and behavior. In her dissertation, “Race, Risks, and Responses: Mapping Black Americans’ Reactions to Group Threat,” Jackson investigates the role of group threat in influencing Black Americans’ political behavior. Methodologically, she utilizes quantitative analyses of survey data and experiments as well as qualitative analysis of 50 in-depth interviews with young Black Americans ages 18 to 35 in the Chicago area to investigate both intergroup and intragroup differences in responses to and ideas about group threat. She finds that Black women are most likely to express concerns about state-based and intragroup threat. Conversely, Black men vary drastically in their responses to group threat depending on their sexual orientation, gender expression, and vulnerability to stereotypes.
