Dr. Silber Mohamed's research interests include Latino politics, immigrant socialization and participation, immigration policy, and identity politics in the U.S., with a focus on the influence of race, class, and gender. Her ongoing research projects also explore media coverage of immigrants as well as the intersection of religion and politics, including the politics of assisted reproductive technologies (for instance, In Vitro Fertilization, or IVF). She teaches courses on American government, Latino politics, women and politics, immigration policy, research methods, and the politics of food. Her book, The New Americans?: Immigration, Protest, and the Politics of Latino Identity (University Press of Kansas, 2017) focuses on the wave of Latino-led protests that occurred across the United States in 2006 in response to an immigration bill pending before the U.S. Congress. Her research has been covered in national media outlets including the Washington Post and the Boston Globe. She is affiliated with the Center for Gender, Race, and Area Studies (CGRAS), the Latin American and Latino Studies concentration, and the program in Women's and Gender Studies. Dr. Silber Mohamed also worked for six years as a policy adviser on Capitol Hill, in both the Senate and the House of Representatives.
