Research

Even though the image of the lone wolf writer still haunts academia, I remain committed to collaborating in my research projects.  Currently, I am co-authoring Cosmology of the Circle: Decolonial Weaving of the Classroom with Egidio Alcides De Bustamante Azevedo and Jennifer M. Murphy.  We are writing a book based on our collaborative teaching methods, documenting how to transform the classroom into a radically democratic, critical, and relational space of creative learning, informed by a decolonial ecology of knowledge that weaves together practical, scholarly, and philosophical ways of knowing.
