McNair Scholars, Ereisa Morales and Angelica Macias, presented their posters at the 2019 Globalization, Diversity, and Education Conference (GDE2019) in Airway Heights with Dr. Christina Torres Garcia. GDE2019, according to Paula Groves Price, brings “together over 150 scholars from 35 Institutions and Organizations to share research, dialogue, and strategize deeper ways of working together for greater justice in schools and communities.” It’s a great event to network with professionals from all over about the effectiveness of activism in the context of education. Ereisa Morales presented her poster titled, “Si Se Puede? An In-Depth Examination of Rural Washington Latinx Students Experiences in Higher Education.” Angelica Macias also presented her poster “Housing Discrimination in the Tri-Cities Latinx Community.”
