Title: Charting a Path for Indigenous Perspectives in Mathematics Education

Abstract: Drawing largely from my own engagement as an Indigenous educator with experiences in Indigenous and Non-Indigenous contexts for learning and teaching, the talk will address key moments of Indigenous resurgence and attend to critical tensions that can be generative to the field of mathematics education. More specifically, I will discuss how Indigenous ways of knowing and doing can shape the work of knowing and doing can shape the work of...

Title: Synchronizing Concerns: Inclusion, Mathematics Education and Timing

Abstract: During my years of working with inclusion and mathematics education, I have learned that concerns present in schools and in society in general do not always coincide with academic concerns, particularly in mathematics education research. This mismatch of priorities led me to reflect on how to redirect my work efforts. Schools, colleges, and all teaching institutions often need to deal with urgent issues, where there is no time for ideas to mature. It is necessary to act....

Title: The Geo-onto-politics of Mathematics Education: Different Scales of Mattering

Abstract: This talk aims to tackle the problem of the local and the global in mathematics education, drawing on how this problem is framed by feminist, political thinkers as they engage planetary concerns. The feminist assertion that 'the personal is political' is now becoming ‘the personal is geological', inviting attention to different scales of mattering and how they relate. I will work through these ideas to offer new spatial and temporal imaginaries for thinking these...

Title: The Somatic Norm and Bodies Out of Place in Mathematics: Mujeresnegras as “Space Invaders”

Abstract: 1. The Expulsion. In a historic first, a researcher was expelled from the International Congress on Mathematical Education (ICME) without the opportunity for an allegation or defense. It is notable that the first person to be expelled from a scientific space dedicated to the dissemination of knowledge of mathematics (education) was a non-white woman from the Global South. This historical fact raises questions about the nature of mathematics (education) as a...
