In our final GridgeFridge episode of the semester, we are joined by Dr. Jessica Lee Stovall, an assistant professor in the Department of African American Studies at UW–Madison. Dr. Stovall’s research explores how Black teachers create liberatory and sustaining spaces within schools, using Black Studies as a framework for reimagining education. She has received recognition for her work through fellowships from the Ford Foundation, Spencer Foundation, and Fulbright Program. At UW, she’s developing new courses that connect students with the legacy and ongoing impact of Black thought.
