Loved writing this with Dr. Hernández & Reed Swier. Part of this book includes the YPAR work I did w/ an amazing group of youth who interrogated & addressed disproportionality in their schools. AND it includes tools you can use to adapt to your own school context! 🤩

Yesterday, I received an email that I was promoted to Full Professor. When I started at UCR, there were very few women, let alone women of Color or mothers of Color in my college, and absolutely none at the rank of Full Professor. I feel so much gratitude, and so FULL.

The Supreme Court just decimated what was left of affirmative action. Read Uma Jayakumar and @DrIbram op-ed on the issue.

Thank you Centre for Race, Education and Decoloniality for hosting me today for this talk at Leeds Beckett University. It was wonderful to connect with such great British colleagues!

Every word. Rita Kohli #CRED23

If the #SupremeCourt ends #affirmativeaction tomorrow, race will continue to count in admissions…

…But only if you’re white.

#JusticeJackson explained it during oral SFFA v UNC arguments.
