“In these intimate interactions, communication is always imbued with power dynamics, which are shaped by racialized identity (Hill, 2008;Kochman, 1981) and cultural practices (Jackson, 2014, p. 217;Kubota, 2012).”

In the citing paper
“Racism is simultaneously a social institution in its own right and a force that structures other institutions as people are put into categories, those categories are ranked, and resources are transferred from the lower-ranked to the more highly ranked categories (Hill 2008, pp. 20-21).”
From African American Archaeology, for Now (2022) · cites this paper as Hill 2008

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
