This paper diffracts the work of Maria Lugones, Elizabeth Freeman, and Karen Barad to develop the notion of "colonialities of chrononormativity." This diffractive reading is motivated by a desire to examine the way childhoods are a colonial inheritance, producing multiplicitous configurations of children that embody various un/just…

Considering art and its educative potentials as a living experiment with the body's elemental constitution and modes of organisation, this article engages "water," "earth," "air," and "fire" as milieus through which a body learns to sense, move, and act in the world differently. This leads to a series of…

Despite the exponential growth of urban Aboriginal populations in Australia over the past four decades, the complexities of establishing, leading, and maintaining support for Aboriginal children in urban primary education has vastly been overlooked. Focusing on a specific case study in urban NSW, this paper identifies the influence of…

Interlocking mechanisms of exclusion function as gatekeepers to high-quality learning in schools, which perpetuate oppressive conceptions of ability, learning, and intelligence. Across educational ecosystems, these intersecting forms of oppression--including but not limited to racism, ableism, and colonialism--are reified through exclusionary…

Language is a source of power that preserves the status quo in its relationships with learners and mathematics. However, there is a dearth of research that examines how multiple systems of power (e.g., racism, cisheteropatriarchy, colonialism) shape variation in structural inequality and experiences of oppression for language learners. This…

This systematic review explores the intersection of race, gender, and social class in the context of internationalization of higher education (IHE) research in Brazil.

Background: The field of special education (SPED) has struggled with persistent equity problems in providing meaningful learning opportunities for students of color. These inequities are experienced by students who are navigating the intersection of race and disability, marginalizing and harming them. Critical scholars urge SPED to carefully…

This essay highlights a critical assessment approach for intercultural communication courses that engages in a "doing--undoing" practice for instructors, with the aim of "doing" culture as learned through society and traditional intercultural communication instruction with the limited, romanticized, and settler colonial…

Belonging is central to many students' educational experiences, yet the field of school belonging contends with limited theoretical grounding specifically developed for educational contexts and unresolved tensions between research and practice. This qualitative study evaluates the applicability of the meta-theoretical "Integrative Framework…

Scholars critique LGBTQ+ social movements for failing to understand how oppressive systems like racism inform the experiences of LGBTQ+ community members. To investigate whether LGBTQ+ literature in postsecondary education reproduces this same pattern, we used a critical summative content analysis approach to examine research published on LGBTQ+…

Drawing from critical theory and intersectionality, we speak with and through racially just methodologies and epistemologies to problematize who is being centred, for what purpose, and encourage the visibilizing of identities not explicitly engaged within this work. We argue that for racially just research to challenge how whiteness and ableism…

This mixed-methods study reports the results of a survey completed by a sample of Puerto Rican social and natural scientists (STEM-S) regarding their perceptions of the intersectionalities of racism, colorism, colonialism, and the culture of science. Most participants ranked themselves as light-skinned and were familiar with the racist stereotypes…

Purpose: This paper aims to highlight how Black African academics who live and work under coloniality are systematically seen as "out of place" and how this positioning compounds their experiences of interpersonal and systemic marginalisation within predominantly white universities. Design/methodology/approach: This is a conceptual paper…

It analyses how Filipina/o/x youth understand their political agency, the legacy of colonialism, and their sense of…

The decline of public education and the concomitant loss of the commons are increasingly recognized as significant and interwoven issues. Like other prevailing societal problems, such as the tenacity of institutionalized racism, classism, and patriarchy, these conditions are rooted in the ways growing numbers of people have come to think and act…
