Systemic harms structured through U.S. education and other public systems have been propagated by restrictive and deficit beliefs normalizing these harmful structures, including presumed scientific warrants across fields, spanning the early days of Eugenics to more recent work addressing the role of culture, viewed as hierarchies, static and singular. In contrast, more recent findings across human development, learning sciences, cultural, cognitive and social psychology, and neurosciences articulate a complex conceptualization of learning and development documenting the centrality of culture, human malleability, relationships, and diversity of pathways of development. Presentations articulate and build on these cross disciplinary findings informing how we can/should address historical and contemporary harms experienced through education and attendant systems that constrain opportunity, through research, practice, and policy.
