Empirical investigations have found trauma to be disproportionately concentrated in and experienced by minoritized communities (Gherardi et al., 2020; Muldoon et al., 2021). Although trauma also occurs as a result of natural disasters or accidental events, the effects of these traumas tend to be less severe than those resulting from events of…

Dissatisfied by her previous enquiries on medieval kingship and inspired by Helen Castor's "She-Wolves," Elizabeth Carr sought to incorporate the stories of powerful medieval women such as Empress Matilda and Eleanor of Aquitaine into her Key Stage 3 curriculum.

Derek Michael Chauvin," the university at which the author is employed made an announcement, probably much like those emitted at other colleges and universities around the country.

Given calls to integrate critical perspectives in leadership education, this paper presents the findings from a study conducted to see how efficacious early-career professionals are in translating these concepts into their practice. Guided by narrative inquiry, we centered the stories of nine practitioners after they participated in CSP 786, a…
