Intersectional Crossroads
Historically, scholars understood girl gang involvement through the lens of boy’s gang experience. Solely relying on the aforementioned demographic’s gang experience dismisses the intersectional nature of girl gang involvement. This article explores how Latinx teenage gang members describe and understand their involvement and/or affiliation with gangs by using multiracial feminism and intersectionality as theoretical frameworks. We found that mul…
“They mostly gave out packages”
You're Being Watched All the Time
Recent research on systems of social control demonstrates how young men experience surveillance and the harmful effects of these types of practices. However, missing from this discourse is the understanding of how girls experience these practices and the gendered challenges associated with surveillance. In this article, we discuss the experiences of 12 Latina girls who were interviewed inside a juvenile detention center in California. Drawing fro…
Building the Settler Colonial Order
In this article we focus on missing and murdered Indigenous women, girls, and 2SLGBTQQIA people in “Canada.” We theorize narratives that police employ to respond to this violence. Using a broad data sample of testimonies across “Canada,” this article contributes to understanding how police (in)actions make sense of, justify, and dismiss violence against Indigenous women, girls, and 2SLGBTQQIA people. We draw from 48 in-depth semi-structured inter…
I Think the Mental Part Is the Biggest Factor”
This article explores the unique and understudied experiences of Indigenous women living in Toronto, Canada during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic. The purpose of this study is to better document the impacts of COVID-19 on the mental health and wellbeing of Indigenous women in Toronto, Canada to better understand unmet needs, as well as lay the groundwork for more targeted research and potential interventions based on these needs. Using i…
Critical pedagogy
Critical pedagogy scholars have described teaching as an act of love. This love is not a trivial emotion but a conscious action that demonstrates care, respect, honesty, listening, and solidarity. However, translating love and other principles of critical pedagogy into the classroom can be complex and painful. This article discusses our pedagogical experiences of love and care inside and outside classrooms. Our reflections on working in a juvenil…
Young women’s intimate partner relationships and institutional responses inside a California Juvenile Detention Centre
This paper examines the experiences of girls who engage in intimate partner relationships behind bars and describes how institutional actors respond to these partnerships. Current research on sexuality in prisons and detention centres largely focuses on the experiences of men. Those studies that focus on women largely ignore the experiences of underage women. Moreover, current theoretical and empirical work in this area demonstrates how monitorin…

Gender on the Run
Recent research on systems of social control has demonstrated how African American men who live in segregated neighborhoods are disproportionately affected by their legal standing, especially in their attempts to avoid imprisonment when “on the run.” However, missing from this analysis is the inclusion of how the intersection of race, class, gender, and other identities shape our understanding of being “on the run.” Building on work in this area,…

Caught Up
Caught Up follows the lives of 50 Latina girls in “El Valle” Juvenile Detention Center and “Legacy” community school located 40 miles outside of Los Angeles, CA. Their path through these two institutions reveals the accelerated fusion of California schools and institutions of confinement. For example, the connection between both of these sites is a concerted effort between Legacy Community School and El Valle administrators to provide young peopl…
“Staff Here Let You Get Down”
Girls today are more likely to be arrested for violent behavior than in previous decades. In the United States more girls are also serving time in secured detention for violent offenses than in years past. While scholars have explored changes in institutional responses to girls’ violent behavior, few have considered how institutions like detention centers actively promote violence among girls. In this article, I provide an ethnographic account of…
