With great sadness, we announce the passing of Reg Daniel. He was a friend, colleague, mentor, educator, and inspiration to so many people who have been part of the Sociology Department and the UCSB campus over the decades. As a pioneer in the field of Critical Mixed Race Studies, his work influenced generations of scholars and activists. This is a tremendous loss. We offer our condolences to all who are mourning. If you wish to share your thoughts and memories of Reg, you can do so on this memory board. We established a G. Reginald Daniel Memorial Fund which will be devoted to honor his legacy as a teacher, mentor, and pioneering scholar of Critical Mixed Race Studies. He had a profound impact on generations of students as well as scholars and activists within and beyond the university. The funds will support graduate and undergraduate students in the Department of Sociology as well as the ongoing work on Critical Mixed Race Studies.
