Introduction
I am a historian of late twentieth century Britain (broadly conceived) specialising in anti-racist activism, social movements, students and youth, immigration and decolonisation. My research interests lie in the intersection between education, technologies, and civic engagement for social justice and inclusion. In the last 15 years, I have researched how educational decision-making processes and how educational institutions foster young people's empowerment to participate in social, scientific, and political issues through technologies. In the past 4 years, I have been working on implementing the inclusive and diversity frameworks to foster equity in education (e.g., gender, race, ethnicity, social class, neurodiversity, etc.), including anti-racist technologic design.
Expert
I have been teaching and researching the impact of decolonisation on British society and culture for more than fifteen years. I have published widely on the social and cultural impacts of the end of empire within Britain, as well as the transnational connections and networks of activists and ideas.
