Radical Research from BIPOC Scholars at UIC – Marisol Becerra

Join us as Bridge to the Faculty scholars share their experiences and respective research with the UIC community. Through an intersectional lens, these scholars reveal the complexity and specificity of their contemporary research and how the lives of those in the margins are impacted.
