DREAM Collective’s Next Podcast, “Criminalizing the Student Body”
The DREAM (Dismantling Racism through Education, Advocacy and Mobilization) Collective at Southern Illinois University Edwardsville will air its next episode of the podcast, “Blacktivism in the Academy,” on Thursday, Oct. 29.
Episode seven, “Criminalizing the Student Body,” will feature Subini Annamma, PhD, associate professor in the Graduate School of Education at Stanford University; and David Stovall, PhD, professor of African-American Studies and Criminology, Law and Justice at the University of Illinois at Chicago.
Annamma’s research critically examines the ways students are criminalized and resists that criminalization through the mutually constitutive nature of racism and ableism, how they interlock with other marginalizing oppressions, and how these intersections impact youth education trajectories in urban schools and youth prisons.
Stovall’s scholarship investigates the areas of Critical Race Theory, the relationship between housing and education and the intersection of race, place and school.
The podcast is for scholar activists by scholar activists, and encourages and facilitates learning, activism and anti-racist action. If you are seeking a community of like- minded scholar-activists, keep listening. Access “Blacktivism in the Academy” on Spotify and Stitcher. Featured will be prominent speakers from communities of color, who will address how to step out of the societal cyclical patterns of the past.
DREAM Collective members include education faculty Jennifer Hernandez, PhD, Jessica Krim, EdD, J.T. Snipes, PhD, Nate Williams, PhD, and School of Education, Health and Human Behavior Dean Robin Hughes, PhD.
