Theories of Understanding

For the Community, Youth, and Education Studies major, we are expected to write three critical papers theorizing social inequality, social change, and positionally.

Here I have included the original papers I had written in May of 2025 as I was in the midst of designing my research. A year later, I have added an addendum to each of the three theories to reflect my current thinking. I have chosen to add this addendum rather than revise the original papers to reflect the growth of my thinking over the last year.
