  • Caroline Hodges Persell: Good Afternoon and Welcome to the Presidential and Awards Ceremony of the American Sociological Association in Its Centennial Year
    Caroline Hodges Persell: Good afternoon and welcome to the Presidential and Awards Ceremony of the American Sociological Association in its Centennial Year. If you are coming in the doors, I will ask those of you who have seats next to you to raise your hand please, a trick I just learned from our President Troy Duster. So come on in and have a seat and welcome. I am Caroline Persell. I am the Vice President of the Association and the first thing we are going to do is take a moment of remembrance for those of our colleagues who have died in the past year and their names will be on the screen and we will remember them in silence. Thank you. (Screen shot of names 00:00:46 to 00:01:30). Okay. Thank you. It gives me great pleasure now to introduce a distinguished international visitor who is going to present a plaque to our President, Troy Duster. Professor Roberto Capriani, Presidente Associazione Italiana Associologio will come up and give a presentation or our President Troy Duster. Roberto Capriani: Mr. President, colleagues. The Founder of the American Sociological Society, Lester Ward learned many languages and traveled a lot and it was his ideas to summon European scholars. The spirit of our Founders, our sponsors, must be preserved, notwithstanding the differences from a historical point of view. When the American Journal of Sociology began in Italy, we had Revista Italiana Associologia – The Italian Review of Sociology. Afterwards, Vilfredo Pareto left our country and our fascist government prevented any development of sociological studies.

The author warmly thanks the following people and institutions for their contributions: Kevin Deardorff (U.S. Census Bureau); United Nations Statistical Division (Department of Economic and Social Affairs), Demographic and Social Statistics Branch (particularly Mary Chamie, Jeremiah Banda, Yacob Zewoldi, Margaret Mbogoni, Lisa Morrison-Puckett and intern Julia Alemany); International Programs Center, U.S. Census Bureau; Caroline Persell and Sylvia Simson (New York University); Leslie Stone (Inter-American Development Bank); Gerald Haberkorn (Secretariat of the Pacific Community); and Patrick Corr (Australian Bureau of Statistics).

This acknowledgement demonstrates a commitment to beginning the process of working to dismantle ongoing legacies of settler colonialism, and to recognize the hundreds of Indigenous Nations who continue to resist, live, and uphold their sacred relations across their lands.
