Visiting Research Scholar in the Edmund W. Gordon Institute for Urban and Minority Education
"#PoliceFreeCampus and Police-Free Futures" illuminates the longstanding relationship between higher education and the carceral state. Drawing on theories of racial capitalism and settler colonialism, the book argues that today’s colleges and universities are expanders of the carceral net through their over-reliance on police, extractive relationship to the public, and furtherance of the social and political conditions that necessitate policing and expand criminalization.

SAWA is a worldwide policy bundle (Verger et al 2019) that strengthened school autonomy with accountability measures, such as standardized testing. This policy package was also implemented in Iceland from 1991 to 2015 (Steiner-Khamsi et.al., 2024). However, unlike many other nations, the SAWA process led Iceland to have the highest school autonomy but lowest accountability; without any standardized testing. My current research delves into the process behind this.
