Based on my research interests, my in-classroom pedagogy teaches students how to conduct decolonial research that advances social justice for Indigenous, Latinx, and other people of color communities. In my sections for an “Introduction to Ethnic Studies” course, I assigned readings by women of color feminists to frame academic knowledge as a social formation that has historically excluded racialized minorities. In my “Indigenous Politics in the Americas” seminar, I paired peer reviewed scholarship with primary source materials to teach students how to evaluate critical knowledge and other ways of knowing. In my courses, I assign traditional essays and creative assignments based on syllabi readings that encourage students to theorize new forms of equity and justice for marginalized communities.
