One thing sociology has taught me is that what seem to be unique characteristics of individuals or groups, are in reality responses to *unique conditions.*
It makes total sense for some now to rest on ideological justifications that have been embraced by victims of hate speech in the past.
Old Dominion University is hiring a lecturer in #cybercriminology, #cyberlaw, or #digitalsociology.

Are you a (digital) sociologist or (cyber)criminologist studying AI?
ODU is hiring!
I'm on the search committee and the coordinator of our cybercriminology program.
Our ad is vague, so I put some potential research areas in the image.
The Department of Sociology and Criminal Justice at Old Dominion University (ODU) invites applicants for an Assistant or Associate Professor position to begin in Fall 2025 as part of a multi-position hiring initiative for Trustworthy AI. This multi-position cluster hire is part of ODU’s Centennial Cluster Initiative, which supports the expansion of transdisciplinary research efforts by prioritizing the hiring of multiple faculty positions targeting specific research areas. The Trustworthy AI cluster hire involves interdisciplinary collaboration among School of Cybersecurity, Department of Computer Science, and Department of Sociology & Criminal Justice, and builds on existing interdisciplinary strengths at ODU. This position is expected to be a tenure track appointment, but an initial appointment with tenure will be considered for exceptionally qualified candidates. We are seeking a criminologist or sociologist whose research addresses applications of Trustworthy AI in Cyber Criminology, with an emphasis on Fairness, Accountability, Transparency, and Ethics (FATE) in AI, to teach online and on-campus courses in our undergraduate programs in Criminal Justice and Ph.D. in Criminology & Criminal Justice and develop new courses at the intersection of AI and cyber criminology.About ODU: Old Dominion University, located in Norfolk, is Virginia's forward-focused public doctoral research university with more than 23,000 students, a top R1 research ranking, rigorous academics, an energetic residential community and initiatives that contribute $2.6 billion annually to Virginia's economy.Old Dominion University was founded in 1930. In preparation for our centennial anniversary, the institution initiated the Centennial Cluster Initiative, a hiring program designed to hire interdisciplinary clusters of faculty around emerging themes. As the first step of that initiative, we seek to hire 25 scholars who can contribute to the university’s growing research and teaching portfolio in the area of artificial intelligence. Those scholars will be housed in departments across campus and work together on scholarly activities related to artificial intelligence.

GWU's Program on Extremism does yeoman's work on extremist elements in the US.
I see their program as adding a necessary theoretical and explanatory layer to the data points in the media and to the work done by DHS and FBI (the departments #Project2025 wants to abolish).
I love #Startalk. I burst out laughing in my office today, when I misheard how Neil Degrasse Tyson pronounced this scientist's name.
I thought her last name was counting n.....!!!!
Tyson was a little unsure of the pronunciation and had to ask her about it.
It's been a while since I thought about "woke." Is that a function of my disengaging from social media, or has the "woke fever" finally broken?
I did a quick pull of Google Trends data to see. Interest seems to be rebounding after a lull in late 2023.
