Welcome

A Warm Welcome from the ReRighting Education Team at San Francisco State University!

Our mission is to engage in projects, scholarship, dialogue and action in an effort to shift the educational paradigm toward one of EQUITY, ACCESS, and TRANSFORMATION.

Our Vision:

  • A field of Education that reflects, centers, and elevates the humanity and the work of students and communities on the margins
  • A community of academics, students, educators, and other practitioners that work in solidarity with the most impacted communities to transform the paradigms of colonialism and dispossession that define the history of this country
  • A meaningful and impactful academic work that honors abundant and invaluable contributions of diversity, diverse individuals and communities
