This Faculty in Focus program will emphasize how research and scholarly writing with and for undocu communities serve as mechanisms to resist the dehumanizing and oppressive systems impacting their trajectories as individuals with precarious immigration statuses. Engaging in humanizing and collaborative research approaches about the experiences of undocu communities can lead to transformative and liberatory practices within and outside higher education settings. Faculty featured in this program will share how they have partnered with undocu communities in their research to center their needs and experiences and resist systemic injustices. Faculty will also discuss the key implications of their research, particularly as it relates to the 2025 sociopolitical climate.
This event can be attended in person at the James West Alumni Center or online via Zoom. Please indicate your attendance preference when filling out the RSVP form.
