In countries from which enslaved Africans were forcibly taken to the new world, critical discussion of the Transatlantic Slave Trade (TST) and its Diaspora remains elusive, especially in educational spaces.

Zhao, Weili – Curriculum Inquiry, 2020
Epistemicide happens when globalizing West-centric discourses and practices dominate non-Western societies, suppressing and killing the latter's cultural systems of knowledge production.

Edwards, Kirsten T. – Curriculum Inquiry, 2020
While university-based study abroad programs have become a core component of multicultural education, I argue that in many ways the dominant model of study abroad is rooted in a white masculinist episteme predicated on anthropological consumption of the "Other" without, and largely opposed to, meaningful examinations of the self. The…
