Very excited to hear from @DrBreeden and Jeremy Wright-Kim as this year's winners of the Bobby Wright Dissertations of the Year #ASHE2021 🧵
First up, @DrBreeden presenting her dissertation "'Miles away, but in our own backyard': A participatory action study examining relationships between historically white institutions and Black communities" #ASHE2021
@DrBreeden names it directly: historically white institutions are complicit in harming Black communities through a web of mistrust that includes enslavement, medical abuse, urban renewal, and gentrification (to name a few) #ASHE2021
@DrBreeden used endarkened feminist epistemology, which centers Black communities as knowledgable beings and creators of knowledge while centering spirit and care through her research. Absolutely beautiful.
The use of participatory action research as a method was intentional. @DrBreeden talks about the ways scholars often go into and take from communities without giving much back. #ASHE2021
Wow! @DrBreeden discusses the various, *many* public ways she is sharing their research with broader publics. So many of us could learn from these multiple ways of speaking back to the very people and communities we purport to serve #ASHE2021
@DrBreeden presented her findings through a play with community members, using particular vignettes to spotlight different themes #ASHE2021
"How can institutions say that Black Lives Matter if they do not care for the Black folks in their own communities?" // @DrBreeden#ASHE2021
Up next, @jwrightkim discussing his dissertation entitled "An exploration of the dynamic financial impacts of community college baccalaureate (CCB) adoption" #ASHE2021
@jwrightkim looked at the access/enrollment, financial, and methodological dimensions of community college baccalaureate adoption in the entire dissertation; the work he'll explore in this session relates tot he financial impacts #ASHE2021
Community college baccalaureate degree authorization often requires student/workforce needs and must include proof that a similar degree is not offered by other four-year institutions in a state @jwrightkim#ASHE2021
@victorerikray draws our attention to the national moral panic re: teaching race and racism in schools and colleges in the US, and the inherent riskiness of race-based researching this moment #racializedorganizations#ASHE2021
Time to start our #ASHE2021 Presidential Session entitled “Understanding and Supporting Student Success in an Alternate Reality" with @FeleciaElana, Ray Black, @AutumnWilke, @drdavidperezii, and me!
And yes, I am gonna try to 🧵 this 😂
Kicking us off, @FeleciaElana sets the context of the alternative/additional reality we will discuss today, both historical and contemporary #ASHE2021
How do we understand, foster, advocate for, and embody student success in this alternative reality? Our fabulous moderator @FeleciaElana kicking us off! #ASHE2021
Looking forward to learning with and from @Dr_Catalano, @rachellwag, and @Susan_Marine in their interactive symposium "Teaching the Tools of Resistance: Crafting Critical Classrooms" #ASHE2021 🧵
Me and @HeyDrMcCloud are virtually sitting next to each other!
Dr. Noelle Arnold welcoming us to this third installment of the #OSUDearWhitePeople series. Today's panelists are @DrAjWelton, @cheryl_phd, & Frank Tuitt and will discuss "Can you also be antiracist in educational spaces?"
An anti-racist standpoint involves an understanding of the history, pervasiveness, and endemic nature of racism in higher education and a deliberate rejection of color-evasive standpoints // Frank Tuitt #OSUDearWhitePeople
It's not enough to just say I am anti-racist. There must be evidence of it in your everyday actions and systemically within schools and institutions. // @DrAjWelton#OSUDearWhitePeople
Alright, ready for @DrDLStewart’s @TEDxCSU talk entitled:
Black Trans* Lives Matter
I am going to talk to you today about how Black trans lives matter and how race and gender have historically and currently intersected to shape the lives of Black trans people // @DrDLStewart
“My body defies the restrictions of a society consumed by boxes and binaries and ‘are you a boy or a girl?’ Independent of such conventions, my body clings instead to the long ago lore that understood its magic: I contain multitudes.” // @DrDLStewart
