I am so honored that my book has been chosen as Outstanding Contribution in the Social Sciences category of the Association for Asian American Studies 2026 Book Awards. I am beyond grateful for this recognition. The citation is just heartwarming and validating. Thank you so much, AAAS. 🙏🏿
Please join us in this timely discussion! Register at bit.ly/3K1ZUIi. This virtual panel, sponsored by @asa-cbsm.bsky.social, brings together leading scholars whose work examines youth mobilization across diverse political contexts—including Indonesia, Morocco, and the United States.
And most of all, thank you to all the migrants and activists who shared with me their documents, told me their stories, and invited me to their homes and organizations. I would not have been able to complete the research for their book without your generosity and commitment to social change. 🙏
Thank you to the awards committees who selected my book and to all those who supported me while writing the book, especially my editor at University of Chicago Press, Elizabeth Dyson; my development editor, Jenny Gavacs; Rhacel Parrenas, Waverly Duck, and David S. Meyer; and Grinnell College.

Hi Shruti. Unfortunately, I don't have a chapter on transnational families. The book focuses mostly on protests. :(
Thank you very much, Shruti. If you assign the book in your class, I am happy to join you via Zoom.
I'm giving a book talk next week at my alma mater, University of Pittsburgh. It's been 10 years since my last visit, and I'm very excited. I hope you can attend. #InsurgentCommunities
@uchicagopress.bsky.social
So happy to have been awarded an honorable mention alongside @chiaragalli.bsky.social, winner of the 2025
@midwestsoc.bsky.social Distinguished Book Award. The committee praised my book #InsurgentCommunities for being “theoretical robust” and “a solid sociological investigation.” My heart is full.
Late breaking Annex episode! @sharonquinsaat.bsky.social spoke with @danielrmorrison.bsky.social about her book Insurgent Communities. Quinsaat takes an in depth look at the formation of a transnational diaspora. socannex.commons.gc.cuny.edu/podcast/shar...
Dan, thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to talk about my book. I enjoyed our conversation a lot! I appreciate the work you do for Sociology Annex.
I am excited for this virtual book launch at York University. Thank you to amazing peers in migration studies, Ethel Tungohan and Yvonne Su, for inviting me and organizing the talk and to Center for Refugee Studies and York Centre for Asian Research for sponsoring. I hope you can attend.
Thank you so much!
Maraming salamat sa Ateneo de Manila University Press, lalo na kay Julian dela Cerna at Ace Vincent P. Molo sa paggabay at koordinasyon at sa reviewer sa paniniwala na kailangan ng Philippine edition ang libro ko. At siempre, kay Jojo Abinales sa pagpapakilala sa akin kay Julian.
While the press thinks the existing cover is very good, the editors think it's best to distinguish the Philippine edition and adapt it to local markets by changing the cover. You can order at: unipress.ateneo.edu/product/insu....
