Dr. Subini Ancy Annamma is an associate professor in the Graduate School of Education at Stanford University. Her research examines the ways students are criminalized and resist that criminalization through the mutually constitutive nature of racism and ableism, how racism and ableism interlock with other marginalized oppressions, and how these intersections impact youth education trajectories in urban schools and youth prisons. Further, she positions students as knowledge generators, exploring how their narratives can inform teacher and special education.
Dr. Cheryl E. Matias is a professor and director of secondary teacher education at the University of Kentucky. Her research focuses on race and ethnic studies in education with a theoretical focus on critical race theory, critical whiteness studies, critical pedagogy, and feminism of color. Specifically, she uses a feminist of color approach to deconstruct the emotionality of whiteness in urban teacher education and how it impacts urban education.
