Previous studies examining the relationship between instructional "good practices" and first-year students' development have often centered White students, limiting our understanding of the degree to which these practices might be beneficial for racially minoritized students. This study used a critical quantitative approach to examine…

In this article, I use narrative portraiture as a methodology to inquire into the ways that two Asian American (AsAm) girls used their time in an after-school writing collaborative for girls of Color to explore and express their identities and political commitments through multiple literacies. Building on theoretical foundations of AsianCrit,…

As the field of critical whiteness studies (CWS) grows, some white scholars argue that only whites should undertake the study of whiteness. Other white scholars acknowledge the contributions of scholars of Color to the academy, yet rarely draw on the scholarship of authors of Color to push the field to grow. This commentary critiques these…

Over a dozen rigorous randomized-controlled trials show that recognizing worries about belonging in a new school as normal and as improving with time can help students stay engaged, build relationships, and succeed. Such "social-belonging" interventions can help students take advantage of opportunities available to them to develop their…

In an age of inequity, injustice, and ambiguity, it may be that those who cannot reframe and unframe the past through a critical lens of the present will be "condemned to repeat it", thus preventing the possibility of future transformation (Kantawala, in press). Over the past year, George Floyd's death, other recent events of police…
