Representing the Misrepresented: Critical Quant

Latinx Intelligentsia

Ep 39 Critical Quantitative methodology is justice-oriented and focuses on context. If you plan to be a critical quant or quant crit, you need to acknowledge that national datasets do not accurately reflect the lived experiences of those who have been historically marginalized and are founded upon frameworks that are not critical.

La Profesora talks with Dr. Juan C. Garibay about his approach to solving problems that are rooted in critical quantitative methodologies. His approach is influenced by his childhood in Wilmington, CA, a community deeply affected by environmental racism. Dr. Garibay offers advice for our gente interested in engaging in critical quant!

Our Poet-in-Residence and in Resistencia, Cecilia Caballero shares her poem entitled "The Revenge of Henrietta Lacks".
