Description

Locating Black girls’ desires, needs, knowledge bases, and lived experiences in relation to their social identities has become increasingly important in the study of transnational girlhoods. Black Schoolgirls in Space pushes this discourse even further by exploring how Black girls negotiate and navigate borders of blackness, gender, and girlhood educational spaces. The contributors of this collected volume highlight girls as actors and agents of not only girlhood but also the larger, transnational educational worlds in which girlhoods are contained.

Esther O. Ohito is a creative writer, curriculum and cultural theorist, and educational researcher. She is an assistant professor of English/literacy education at Rutgers Graduate School of Education in New Brunswick, New Jersey. She is a member of the Black Girlhoods in Education Research Collective.

Lucía Mock Muñoz de Luna is a Senior Program Associate in the Center for Innovations in Community Safety at Georgetown Law. She is the former editor-in-chief of The High School Journal, a cofounder of the Raíces Collective, and a member of the Black Girlhoods in Education Research Collective.
