Dr. Carl E. James, York University
As a first-year university student, I was asked by a fellow undergraduate student what I “was going to do with Sociology.” The question was premised on the idea that my program of study must be something that should not only be beneficial to me, but also “our” community. So, as a recipient of the Canadian Sociological Association Outstanding Contribution Award in 2020, I will reflect on my experiences engaging in Sociology noting the place of race and community in the experiences, and in this period of racial reckoning and re-imaginings.
