Hi,

My name is Luis Mirón, and I am a faculty member in the Dept. of Educational Policy Studies at the Un. of Illinois. (Sorry, no photo). I share the view that this may open up new spaces for dialogue, and ultimately knowledge. My interest is in the analysis of the everyday practices that give rise to social inequality, in particular racialization. With greater awareness of these practices the aim is to begin the process of constructing new structures aimed at increasing equity and equality.

I look forward to this experiment and having a bit of fun while trying to come up to speed in this environment.
