Reparative Universities Book Launch with Ariana Gonzalez Stokas

April 5, 2023 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm

Stokas undertakes a critical and decolonial analysis of DEI work, linking contemporary practices of diversity to longer colonial histories.

In Reparative Universities, Ariana González Stokas undertakes a critical and decolonial analysis of DEI work, linking contemporary practices of diversity to longer colonial histories. González Stokas argues that diversity is an insufficient concept for efforts concerned with anti-oppression, anti-racism, equity, and decolonization. Given its historical ties to colonialism, can higher education be locations for unraveling, repair and redistribution?

About the author: Ariana González Stokas has spent the last two decades working in institutions as a faculty member and senior-level DEI administrator committed to co-inventing what is possible in learning environments.
