In this episode of "Willing to Learn," host Dr. Ashley D. Domínguez speaks with Drs. Courtney Mauldin and Cierra Presberry. The focus of the conversation centers on their 2020 publication, 'The world is ours, mapping identity with Black Girl Cartography,' featured in the Journal of Education, Administration, and History. Dr. Mauldin draws upon her Memphis upbringing to highlight the transformative power of community and cultural heritage in education and Dr. Presberry highlights the anchoring role of family and community narratives in her scholarly endeavors. Together, they unpack the how vulnerability and authenticity is central to the research that led to 'The World is Ours,' offering invaluable insights into how it pushes the boundaries of conventional education discourse to center marginalized narratives.
