I am currently editing with Joe Feagin a Handbook on Racial and Ethnic Relations for Springer.  With Joe Feagin, also, we are working on a second edition of Liberation Sociology.  With Sidney Homan of our English Department we are completing a book about Hollywood’s Hitler: Reflections on the Good Life. With Andrew Gordon we have begun negotiations for the second edition of Screen Saviors: Hollywood’s Fictions of Whiteness. I am also currently researching physicians’ participation in torture, in Chile 1973-1989 and in Guantánamo 2001-2005.
