We, the American Sociological Association (ASA), acknowledgethat academic institutions, indeed the nation-state itself, was founded upon and continues toenact exclusions and erasures of Indigenous Peoples. This acknowledgement demonstratesa commitment to beginning the process of working to dismantle ongoing legacies of settlercolonialism, and to recognize the hundreds of Indigenous Nations who continue to resist, live,and uphold their sacred relations across their lands. We also pay our respect to Indigenous elderspast, present, and future and to those who have stewarded this land throughout the generations.

4Welcome from the ASA PresidentChristine WilliamsASA PresidentUniversity of Texas at AustinTwo years ago, I convened a Program Committee to brainstorm ideas for the 2020conference. We knew it was going to be an important one for ASA members, as itwould be the year of the Presidential Election, the decennial census, and the 100thanniversary of women’s suffrage. But we could not anticipate the two cataclysmicevents of the year: the COVID-19 pandemic that sickened and killed our friends, familymembers, and colleagues around the world, causing the cancellation of the meeting;and the massive protests against racist police violence in response to the brutal murders of George Floyd, BreonnaTaylor, and many others. I am convinced that the world needs sociology more than ever, but sociology will neverbe the same as a result. Now is the time for sociologists to rededicate ourselves to fighting social injustice in all itsforms.The decision to cancel the San Francisco meeting was not a difficult one to make, but moving to an online eventhas been difficult, requiring the dedicated service of many people. I want to express my sincere appreciation fortheir efforts to make ASA 2020 a meaningful and enriching experience.The staff at ASA have been working overtime to manage the transition while looking out for the best interestsof the Association. After two years of nearly daily communications with them, I can assure members that ourAssociation is in professional and responsible hands.The elected ASA Council has been a source of wisdom, support, and hope to me during these challenging times. Iam especially grateful to have the opportunity to serve with Vice President Joya Misra, whose wise feminist counselI cherish.The tireless Program Committee did their job twice, first organizing a spectacular program, and then reorganizing itas a virtual event. I was told at the beginning of my term that programming the conference would be the best partof being President, and that was no lie, thanks to this wonderful group of scholars and educators.Joya Misra, Vice President, University of Massachusetts, AmherstDavid Takeuchi, Past Secretary, Boston CollegeNancy Lopez, Secretary, University of New MexicoHae Yeon Choo, University of Toronto, MississaugaJoshua Gamson, University of San FranciscoAdia Harvey Wingfield, Washington University in St. LouisAllison Pugh, University of VirginiaVinnie Roscigno, Ohio State UniversityKatherine Rowell, Sinclair Community CollegeKristen Schilt, University of ChicagoDon Tomaskovic-Devey, University of Massachusetts, AmherstMy local arrangements chairperson, Katrina E. Kimport, working with Kimberly Richman and Josh Gamson, puttogether a fabulous line-up of sessions and tours to spotlight the sociological significance of the San Francisco BayArea. I am extremely grateful for their efforts, and disappointed that we are not there to enjoy the results together.Finally, I want to thank the ASA members who generously and graciously worked to make this online eventpossible. I am grateful to the section officers, session organizers, presenters, discussants, moderators, andattendees who came together to make ASA 2020 an unforgettable experience.Although we are not meeting physically this year, I welcome you to join our virtual event, and hope you findinspiration and insight relevant to the times we find ourselves in.
