We argue that future data collection must better represent older ethnic minority populations and enable more detailed analyses of socio-economic disadvantage and exposure to racism over the lifecourse
Along with @inequalccsr, @DharmiKapadia, and @JamesNazroo, we find that ethnic inequalities in health in later life persist across more than 20 years of harmonised social survey data. Our open access paper can be found here -

"Ethnic minority older people are the one of the most disadvantaged groups in the UK but worryingly, quantitative data to investigate this group are sparse."

Such a refreshing format for presenting quantitative research in education inequalities - statistical findings interspersed with readings of quotes from teachers and pupils in complementary research. Putting a voice to the aggregated numbers in a dataset.
Our @MorayHouseCLPL @ciannelli1 knowledge exchange event about understanding the attainment gap was such a great opportunity to disseminate @U_Inequalities research and engage in conversation with (head)teachers, early years practitioners & (non)governmental representatives!
Winding down from a brilliant Social Stratification Research Seminar to mark its 50th anniversary. Very pleased to be part of it and heading back to Edinburgh full of ideas for taking my research forward en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social…
