Jazmen Moore
Department of Africana Studies
IDEA Fellow in Black Diaspora  Studies

Moore’s research focuses on Black girls’ refusals, consent-based learning, and chosen learning spaces. Her dissertation study draws from the discipline of Black studies, Black and Indigenous theories of consent and refusal, arts-based research design, and literacies studies within education. As a community-engaged artist, educator, and scholar, Moore’s experiences as Black woman from the Midwest, and an educator raised on Anishinaabe homelands in Lansing, Michigan, have deepened her commitment to cultivating justice-based learning experiences in schools and out-of-school contexts. She completed her PhD in the Culturally Sustaining Education program at the University of Washington.
