Chinyere K. Osuji is Assistant Professor of Sociology at Rutgers University-Camden. She is the author of Boundaries of Love: Interracial Marriage and the Meaning of Race (2019) with NYU Press which compares how black-white couples in Brazil and the United States make sense of race, race mixture, and affirmative action in these two societies. It is one of the first qualitative studies to compare how Americans and Brazilians, both black and white, negotiate ethnoracial boundaries. Her research has won awards from the Population Association of America and the American Sociological Association Section on Racial and Ethnic Minorities. She is currently researching ethnoracial boundaries in the nursing profession from a critical and intersectional perspective.
