Of Margins, Labor, and Migration in Technological Worlds

• In Event: Refusal, Resistance, and Agency: Toward More Expansive Visions of Being and Becoming

Abstract

In this paper we expand upon the existing critiques towards disciplinary authenticity in the Learning Sciences by showing the relationship between migration of people of colour in technologized worlds and the moral dimension of community-led resistance across three different contexts. We offer an interpretive synthesis of these contexts to understand how these spaces can reorient the field of Learning Sciences towards designing socially just spaces that are in solidarity with endarkened bodies and their hidden labour that gets obscured due to disciplinary violence and exclusion.
