Rob Eschmann

Rob Eschmann is a scholar and filmmaker interrogating the effects of racism and the choices we can make to resist it. He writes on educational inequality, community violence, racism, social media, and youth wellbeing.

Much of Dr. Eschmann’s research investigates the effects of online experiences on real-world outcomes, bridging the gap between virtual and face-to-face experiences. His 2023 book, When the Hood Comes Off, explores the ways online communication changes how we experience, understand, and respond to racism.
