The rise in support for Scottish independence between the 1970s and the 2010s has shaped Scottish politics and policy profoundly. The rise provokes a paradox: in this same period, the average educational level of people living in Scotland has also risen strongly, and yet, at each particular moment in time, higher levels of education have been…

Using an interdisciplinary, post-qualitative, pedagogical methodological (Burke, Crozier, and Misiaszek 2017) practice of "timescapes" (Adam 1998, Burke 2018a), I explore my longest teaching/mentoring relationship, spanning two decades.

This critical ethnographic study uses the concept of racial melancholia to investigate white student resistance to anti-racism in a secondary classroom. I employ a psycho-social (the interplay between psychoanalytic and social processes) approach to examining racialisation through a theoretical and empirical exploration of racial melancholia's…

Science remains an exclusionary field to people who do not align with "acceptable" worldviews (e.g., white, Western, masculine).
