As we envision the times beyond the recent climaxes of these dire crises\, what is our responsibility within higher education for resisting intersecting forms of oppression? How do we understand and enact anti-racist pedagogy to create authentically inclusive educational spaces? Join Dr. Chanelle Wilson\, Bryn Mawr College\, and Mercedes Davis\, Haverford College ’20\, as they facilitate an interactive workshop about student-faculty partnerships and co-teaching as a form of anti-racist pedagogy.

She enjoys facilitating knowledge in a way that encourages personal connections\, promotes critical thinking\, highlights contemporary relevance\, and necessitates justice. Her current scholarship focuses on race and anti-racism in education\, decolonization of schools and the mind\, students as teachers and learners\, culturally relevant pedagogy in international schooling contexts\, and multicultural education in K-12 settings. Dr. Wilson employs strategies of mindfulness and emotional support\, with `a steady underlying premise of love\, joy\, and hope. \nMercedes Davis holds a BA in Sociology and Education from Haverford College\, where she specialized in studies of race\, socioeconomic inequality\, and cultural processes.
