Education research frequently measures and calls for an end to racial disparities in rates of US school discipline practices such as office referrals, suspension, and expulsion. This paper asks what a more expansive understanding of discipline can demonstrate about how schools discipline different students differently. Tracing the history of…

The federal trust responsibility is a legal obligation, rooted in legal and political precedent, in which the U.S. government commits to protect tribal sovereignty, resources, and welfare. For Indigenous communities, there is a long history of broken promises between the U.S. and tribal governments through discriminatory policies and a lack of…

Dominant discourses in U.S. History are typically engaged through a settler-colonial framework. Informed by the ubiquity of commercial presentations, cultural tropes, and caricatures--movies, consumer products, and names--the "presentation" of Native Americans tend to focus on incomplete representations that are cast in the past.
