• This paper employs a CRT perspective to probe the experiences of skilled African migrants parenting Black children in Australia. Participants 鈥渄emonstrated high levels of awareness of intercultural parenting approaches and a desire to blend the best aspects of African and Australian cultural values in their own parenting practice.

• In this article, discrimination in the Irish labor market 鈥渋s challenged by centering race, and juxtaposing the experiences of migrants of Black African descent against their White counterparts based on information from 32 semi-structured interviews of first-generation migrants from Nigeria, Poland, and Spain.鈥� Joseph presents five characteristic experiences identified by synthesizing migrants' interpretation of their journeys to paid employment. The typologies in these trajectories 鈥渞eveal whiteness as a hidden resource that advantages Whites. It also illustrates the prevalence of an ascription of deficiency to Black workers and their credentials.鈥�

• Body-worn cameras (BWCs) are touted as a much-needed remedy to address police misconduct. However, 鈥渢he push for furnishing patrol officers with BWCs in order to bolster accountability, professionalism, and faith in institutional legitimacy might be a misguided effort.鈥� Drawing from the narratives offered by 68 Black Baltimore City residents who were interviewed after Freddie Gray鈥檚 death in 2015, this study 鈥渆xplores what surveilled community members think of BWCs and their disutility, as well as center their suggestions for true and lasting improvements in police-civilian interaction. Theoretical implications for CRT, legal legitimacy, and legal cynicism are also discussed.鈥�

• Utilizing W. E. B. Du Bois鈥� The Souls of White Folk, Rabaka brings Africana studies and critical White studies into dialogue. The author demonstrates 鈥渢he dialectical nature of Du Bois鈥� philosophy of race and CRT by comparing and contrasting his groundbreaking critiques of racism in The Souls of Black Folk with his reconstructed and decidedly more radical critique of the political economy of race, racism, whiteness, and white supremacy in 鈥楾he Souls of White Folk.鈥欌��

• The author deploys a critical race framework 鈥渢o push back against preference as the only, or primary, mechanism facilitating skin tone stratification.鈥� Instead, he uses historical Census data and regression analysis to explore 鈥渢he historical role of color-based marriage selection on concentrating economic advantage among lighter skinned Black Americans.鈥� He then discusses the policy and legal implications of developing a structural view of colorism and skin tone stratification in the U.S. and the broader implications for how race is conceptualized in this country.

• Thomas explores 鈥渢he portrayal of blacks in Norwegian print media between 1970 and 2014 as refracted through the prism of the epithet 鈥楴egro鈥� (neger).鈥� Guided by CRT, 4174 references covering 30 newspapers are analyzed. In contrast to some claims that 鈥淣egro鈥� has been employed as a 鈥渘eutral鈥� biological descriptor in Norway, findings reveal that 鈥渢he epithet verbally incarcerates blacks in a web of racist stereotypes that tap into topoi of blacks as either the eschewed or exotically essentialized 鈥極ther.鈥欌��
