Agency- the capacity of an individual to act freely and make independent choices in any given environment.
Accompliceship- the process of building relationships grounded in trust and accountability with marginalized people and groups. Being an accomplice involves attacking colonial structures and ideas by using one’s privilege and giving up power and position in solidarity with those on the social, political, religious, and economic margins of society. This is in contrast to the contested notion of allyship which is often performative, superficial, and disconnected from the anticolonial struggle.
American Indian- a member of any of the indigenous peoples of the western hemisphere, except those distinguished as Eskimos or Inuits.
Androcentric- the privileging and emphasis of male or masculine interests, narratives, traits, or point of view, often in spaces where power is wielded.

Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS)- is a global social movement that currently aims to establish freedom for Palestinians living under apartheid conditions. Inspired by tactics employed during the South African anti-apartheid movement, the Palestinian-led movement calls for the boycott, divestment, and sanctioning of the Israeli government until it complies with International law. BDS proponents and organizers have called for the global community to boycott or withdraw support from Israel and companies associated with it. The second component of BDS calls for governments, banks, universities, and other institutions to withdraw monetary support (divestment) from Israel and its companies. And finally, the third component—sanctions—asks international governments to hold Israel accountable for its actions through legislation, trade and military agreements, among other measures.
Capitalism- an economic and political system in which industry and trade are based on a “free market” and largely controlled by private companies instead of the government. Within Ethnic Studies, scholars are often very critical of the system of capitalism as research has shown that Native people and people of color are disproportionately exploited within the system. In a capitalist economy, surplus value (profit) is generated from human labor and everything is commodified.

Cultural wealth- critical education scholar Tara Yosso introduced the term “cultural wealth” in 2005 in her work, “Whose Culture has Capital? A Critical Race Theory Discussion of Community Cultural Wealth.” The term speaks to a broader framework that encompasses various forms of cultural capital—aspirational, linguistic, familial, social, navigational, and resistance— that are used to empower people. More specifically, the framework is used to better understand and describe what knowledge, experiences, adversities, strengths, etc. students of color bring with them to educational settings
Decolonization- the process of undoing colonialism. In the very literal sense, decolonization it is the act of formerly colonized countries working to establish their own independence. However, decolonization or decolonize is frequently used to describe the un-learning of hegemonic and oppressive systems, practices, and ways of being in the quest for self-determination.
Dehumanization- when a person or group of people are deprived of human qualities. This process is often carried out when a dominant group abuses power and denies opportunities and rights from another group.
Democracy- a form of government in which the people maintain political power and have the ability to express their politics and views, and vote freely in an electoral process.
Diaspora- is the voluntary or forcible dispersal/movement of peoples from their homelands into new regions.
Double Consciousness- This term was first coined by W. E. B. Du Bois in The Souls of Black Folk to describe how an individual’s identity might be divided into several facets or levels of consciousness. As a theoretical framework, double consciousness reveals the psycho-social divisions in American society, it describes the feeling of having a double identity or “twoness”. Thus, individual’s see themselves through their own eyes and lens and also through the eyes of others and society more broadly.
Empathy- the ability to understand another person’s thoughts, experiences, and feelings from their point of view.
Empire- A group of nations, states or territories, or a major political unit that is controlled by a single government, leader, or military dominion. Within the field of Ethnic Studies, scholars often study the implications of Western empires and expansion on people of color globally.

Environmental racism- is a type of discrimination where people of low-income or minority communities are forced to live in close proximity of environmentally hazardous or degraded environments, such as toxic waste, pollution, and urban decay.
Ethnicity- an identity marker based on ancestry, including nationality, lands/territory, regional culture, language, history, tradition, etc., that comprise a social group.
Eurocentric/Eurocentrism- a worldview that privileges and centers the thoughts, practices, knowledge, history, systems of beliefs, and customs of the western world and people of western European descent more specifically.
Equality- is a state of affairs in which all people within a specific society or isolated group have the same status in certain respects, including civil rights, freedom of speech, property rights, and equal access to social goods and services.
Equity- unlike equality where everyone is treated the same, equity is providing students, and people in general, with what they need to thrive. Equity is the promotion of fairness and takes into consideration different backgrounds, learning styles, and material realities to account for what each individual student needs to succeed.
Gender- western culture has come to view gender as a binary concept, with two rigidly fixed options— men and women. Instead of the static binary model produced through a solely physical understanding of gender, a far richer tapestry of biology, gender expression, and gender identity intersect resulting in a multidimensional array of possibilities. Thus, gender can also be recognized as a spectrum that is inclusive of various gender identities.
Genocide- the intentional systematic destruction of an entire national, ethnic, racial or religious community. Moreover, the United Nations offers a much more expansive definition of this term that encompasses the various ways in which genocide manifests.
Hate crime- according to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), a hate crime is defined as “a criminal offense against a person or property motivated in whole or in part by an offender’s bias against a race, religion, disability, sexual orientation, ethnicity, gender, or gender identity.”

Inequality- is the existence of unequal opportunities and rewards for different social positions or statuses within a group or society.
Inequity- lack of equity; unfairness; favoritism or bias.

Indigenous- refers to the native and original people of a particular land or territory.
Intradisciplinary- working within a single discipline.
Interdisciplinary- research conducted by educators and scholars that involves the intersection and integration of two or more disciplines with the goal of pushing knowledge production and theorizing beyond their disciplinary bounds.

Nepantlas- is a Náhuatl word that was adopted by Chicanx writers, scholars, and feminists to describe an “in-between space.” Chicana feminist, Gloria Anzaldua, was among the first to advance theorizing on the term, defining it as, a precarious space where transformation can occur. The term can be used to describe a variety of identity-related issues, including, race, gender, language, etc. Nepantla is the recognition of confusion, chaos, and messiness in one’s understanding of self and the world. Nepantla also provides room for self-reflection to better understand and work through this liminal space.

Speakers’ triangle- a method used in public speaking to engage an audience. The speakers’ triangle often requires speakers to be mindful of their movements (walking and gestures) as they develop their speeches. For example, if giving a persuasive speech with a three-prong argument, the speaker might start in one position for their first argument, move to another end of the room for the second, and shift to another position for the third, creating a triangle.
Stereotype threat- according to psychologists Claude Steele and Joshua Aronson, stereotype threat is, “being at risk of confirming, as self-characteristic, a negative stereotype about one’s group.” Within the context of their research, Steele and Aronson studied Black and White students’ performance on academic tests. They concluded that because Black students are often stereotyped as inherently “less competent” or lacking intellectual capacity, they would at times feel a desire to disengage from the learning process and perform those negative stereotypes, thus, impacting their performance on academic and standardized tests.
Transdisciplinary- research conducted by educators and scholars from different disciplines working together to create and innovate something entirely new that moves beyond existing disciplinary boundaries.
Transphobia- discrimination, dislike, prejudice, hatred, and a range of other negative feelings and/or actions expressed towards people that identify or are perceived as transgender.

However, Whiteness is much more than a racial identity marker, it separates those that are privileged from those that are not. Whiteness can manifest as a social, economic, political, and cultural behavior and power. For example, the “standard” or cultural “norm” are often always based on whiteness and by extension white culture, norms, and values.
White supremacy- the belief that white people are inherently superior and represent the dominant race. It is an operationalized form of racism that manifests globally, institutionally, and through systems of power.
Womanism- a term that was coined by Alice Walker in response to mainstream feminism’s focus on White women. Womanism emerged as a distinct space to advocate and fight for issues concerning Black women.
