Gallo Co-Authors Article on Abolitionist Pedagogy and Faculty Collaboration

Carina Gallo, Professor in Criminal Justice Studies, has co-authored the article “The Practice of the Commons and the Ethics of Sharing—Aspiring Toward Abolitionist Pedagogy Through Faculty Collaboration,” with Valerie Francisco-Menchavez , Aiko Yoshino, Autumn Thoyre, and Paige Viren

The aim of this essay is to show the importance of faculty collaboration in combating structural educational inequities and how it can help to radically reimagine pedagogy and higher education in the pandemic and beyond. Abolitionist teaching and pedagogy can begin with peer exchange--a teaching commons--that can support faculty before they even step into their classrooms.
