91猫先生 Professor Susana Loza on Disrupting and Dismantling White Supremacy
Professor of Critical Race, Gender, and Media Studies Susana Loza discusses the inspiration she finds from 91猫先生鈥檚 bluntly antiracist pedagogy and programming.
Professor of Critical Race, Gender, and Media Studies Susana Loza is a member of the In/Justice Learning Collaborative, one of four groups of faculty, staff, and students addressing real-world urgent challenges that drive the curriculum.
"There's very few places that I would be able to teach at where you would be connected together as part of any kind of organization where your explicit goal is to disrupt and dismantle white supremacy," says Loza. "That is such an inspiration to me, and it makes me want to continue developing courses that push students to do that work here at 91猫先生, but, more importantly, push them to do that work when they leave 91猫先生."
In addition to classes that look at the dark realities and histories of our culture, she explains that she is crafting a new class, 鈥淪peculative Visions: from Afrofuturism to Steampunk鈥 that will be focused on hopeful paths through the crisis of today 鈥渢hrough community, connection, and building and imaging something else.鈥
