About
Michael L. Rosino is an Assistant Professor of Sociology at Molloy College. He has a Bachelor’s in Sociology and Anthropology from Ohio Wesleyan University, a Master’s in Sociology from the University of Cincinnati, and a Doctorate in Sociology from the University of Connecticut. His research and teaching focuses on race and ethnicity, stratification, politics, media, collective action, crime, law, and deviance, and human rights. His work has appeared in academic journals such as Social Currents, Sociology of Race and Ethnicity, Ethnic and Racial Studies, and Deviant Behavior. His most recent research examines how the participants of a progressive grassroots party in the Northeast engage with issues of racial and political inequality through their identities, habits, and political strategies. It is a multisite ethnographic case study concurrent with the 2016 election. The project sheds light on possibilities and barriers for equitable and inclusive forms of grassroots democracy and advances new understandings of racial politics grounded in everyday social life. His first book, Debating the Drug War: Race, Politics, and the Media, is forthcoming with Routledge Press. It investigates mass and digital media in the debate over drug policy and demonstrates the influence of political ideologies and identities, the omission of racial justice concerns, the use of implicit racial meanings, and identity construction through racial discourse.
