I examine concepts grounded in post-colonial and anti-racist theories, and I interweave these with my experiences in white spaces in Colombia, the USA and Canada as an educator and researcher. I provide…

Using data drawn from the Multi City Study of Urban Inequality and the National Survey of Black Americans, we report evidence…
