About

<p>My scholarship centers on the durabilities of colonialism and other forms of political violence, and how they inform present day political consciousness and imaginations of the future. I'm committed to operationalizing public history to meet social justice needs, to working collaboratively with local communities, and to envisioning a praxis of heritage as liberation. A major offshoot of my research has been an investment in the reinvigoration of feminist method and theory in archaeology, historical anthropology, and museum studies.
