Teaching

I have taught university undergraduate and graduate students, trained immigration and asylum lawyers, conducted on-air immigrant rights classes on radio and television, and educated US policymakers. Against the backdrop of widening inequality and systemic crises of governance and injustice, engaged and inspiring pedagogy to shape a better future has never been more crucial.

​

I teach with three central goals: 1) to critique and deconstruct the politics of the present by exploring the hidden histories and dynamics propping up contemporary power structures and ingrained inequalities; 2) guide students to actively and critically engage with the world around them through multi-media studies and creative fieldwork honed to their passions and skills; and 3) expand the politics of the possible through progressive praxis.
