This can create situations where there are some young people that schools should be very concerned…

This methodological study presents "Intersectional Multimodal Analysis" (IMA), an interpretive framework that infuses intersectionality with social semiotic multimodal analysis methods. My purpose for engaging in this analytical work is to disrupt the dehumanization of the normative white gaze (Morrison 1992) by theorizing and employing…

Many teacher preparation programs focus on preparing teachers to teach for social justice and implement social justice-oriented practices in classrooms. Critical scholars' work has guided frameworks for preparing preservice teachers (PSTs) to disrupt inequities in K-12 spaces; however, few studies have explored how PSTs' intersecting identities…
