Anthony Tróchez, Ph.D. focuses on the intersections of race, gender, class and nature. He is inspired by educators and scholar/activists who envision a world where education heals the traumas of imperialism, colonization, and consumer-capitalist patriarchy. He proposes that cultivating a philosophy and practice of education rooted in simplicity creates restorative paths towards re/learning how to live in, and with, the Earth. His teaching and research interests gravitate towards the ways in which education (our philosophies, epistemologies, theories and practices) can help us grow in our understandings of past and present while compassionately guiding how we move into the future.
