Articles, Publications & Webinars
Dr. Amanda R. Tachine has woven a research agenda with theoretical threads that explore the relationship between sociopolitical contexts, Indigenous presence, and belonging in college settings. More specifically, her work takes up three interconnected, but distinctive issues: 1) Native and Black presence and belonging, 2) assertion of Indigenous methodologies, and 3) tensions between land/college environments and college affordability. Each of these issues represents lessons of history and future worldmaking for the survivance of Indigenous and Black students in education.
Here are some pieces that we offer to fellow nerds.
