When My Reflection Looks Back at Me: Race, Gender, and Literacy in Community-Engaged Scholarship
In this talk, Dr. Haddix will share her journey as a community engaged scholar whose work is deeply informed by her intersecting identities of being a Black woman, mother, daughter, sister, teacher, and researcher. She will describe theoretical and methodological moves from the beginning and throughout her research inquiries, highlighting examples from her work with urban youth in the Writing Our Lives project, with Black adolescent girls in the Dark Girls Celebration of Black Girlhood project, and with students of color in teacher preparation programs.
Dr. Marcelle Haddix is Dean’s Associate Professor and chair of the Reading and Language Arts department in the Syracuse University School of Education.
