Amalia Z. Daché, Associate Professor, Graduate School of Education, University of Pennsylvania: “Cartographies of Afrolatinidad: Limits and Possibilities”

“Cartographies of Afrolatinidad: Limits and Possibilities”

Amalia Daché is an Afro-Cuban American scholar and associate professor of higher education at the University of Pennsylvania. Her experiences as a 1980s Mariel boatlift refugee and student navigating U.S. inner-city schools, community college, state college, and a private research-intensive university contribute to her lines of inquiry. Dr. Daché’s major research areas are postcolonial geographic contexts of higher education, Afro-Latina/o/x studies, community and student resistance, and the college-access experiences of African diasporic students and communities.
