Tanya Golash-Boza, professor of sociology at the University of California-Merced, gives a lecture at the College of the Holy Cross on "Before Gentrification: Race and Dis/Investment in the Nation's Capital." Through her research—Mapping Gentrification in Washington, DC—Professor Golash-Boza shows how home ownership for Black families in Washington DC has not led to intergenerational wealth, as it has for White families, but rather has caused dispossession. This is due to a number of factors including segregation and discriminatory housing policies, White flight, disinvestment in Black neighborhoods, and gentrification. Her talk, held September 27, 2021, was sponsored by the McFarland Center for Religion, Ethics and Culture at Holy Cross.

Deportations from the U.S. reached record highs in the aftermath of the Great Recession (2007–09). At the peak, this wave of deportations reached over 400,000—as many in one year as in the entire decade of the 1980s. The majority of these deportees have U.S. citizen family members, nearly all of whom remain in the U.S. when their relatives are deported. Over 90 percent are men, and nearly all are sent to Latin America, creating gender and race consequences for these communities. Interviews with twenty-five people from California who experienced the deportation of a family member provides insight for this presentation on the collateral consequences of mass deportation. Tanya Golash-Boza is a professor of sociology at the University of California–Merced. Golash-Boza has published several books and dozens of articles and book chapters. Her latest book is Deported: Immigrant Policing, Disposable Labor and Global Capitalism (2016).

In two Ted-style talks, Tanya Golash-Boza (UC Merced) and Rhacel Parreñas (University of Southern California) help close UC Santa Cruz's Andrew W. Mellon John E. Sawyer Seminar on non-citizenship by discussing what they see as some of the key issues framing debates around migration in our time: gender, deportation, incarceration, slavery, human trafficking, structural violence, and global apartheid. Q&A moderated by Felicity Amaya Schaeffer (UC Santa Cruz).
