We adopt the term "everyday harm" to describe this underexplored form of harm. Method: The purpose of this scoping review was to assess how the literature on microaggression and emotional…

Recentering whiteness is a misnomer --it seeks to address a tension that is real but locates it inaccurately and thus the critique becomes absurd. If we can't find a moment when whiteness was ever notcentral to the social organization of the modern world, why would we be concerned about notions of "re-centering" what has never left the…

Today, a fresher look at social structures shows that the possibility of living in a socially homogeneous society has lost its credibility (Senem & Arikan, 2018).
