In this session, we reconceptualize how data is often viewed through deficit-mindedness. We examine education’s role in perpetuating inequity in society through processes, programming, and instruction. Using intersectionality as a theoretical framework, we interrogate how our classroom instruction manages, caters for, includes, exclude, and is experienced in ways that produce advantage and disadvantage.

Trauma is lasting when left untreated. Hence, childhood, economic and societal trauma are not exclusive to the P-12 student. With Howell-Williams, we impress upon higher education educators to promote a learning environment empowering, transforming, and validating for adult learners, specifically students of color. In this session, we move beyond strategizing to implementation.
