Speaker Biography:
Mariana E. Ramírez, Ph.D., was born and raised on Kumeyaay land, on both sides of the Tijuana-San Diego border. Ramírez is the Associate Director for the UCI History Project, focusing on building collaborative networks among ethnic studies scholars, K-12 teachers, and their students to explore local history through an ethnic studies methodology and pedagogy. She worked as a middle and high school teacher in the immigrant communities of Logan Heights, San Diego, and Boyle Heights, Los Angeles, for 13 years. A key part of her K-12 work involved engaging students in geospatial community action research projects and serving as an advisor for student social justice organizations. Her research agenda emphasizes the intersections of ethnic studies pedagogy, critical geographies, and documenting the local histories of joy and resistance of people of color through oral histories and archival research.
