We also talked with two of his <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chapman.edu\/academics\/general-education\/multidisciplinary-clusters\/Leadership%20Cluster.aspx\">Ethnic Studies Activism<\/a> (LEAD 384) students who are members of the Ethnic Studies Summit organizing committee: Daniel Leon-Barranco, a first-year Chapman student majoring in Psychology and minoring in Latinx\/Latin American Studies and Leadership Studies, and\u00a0Jacky Dang, a current third-year student double majoring in Peace Studies and Screenwriting with a minor in Africana Studies. Students Daniel Leon-Barranco and Jacky Dang share what it means to them to take part in the planning of this historic event, and founder Dr. Miguel Zavala describes the significance and hopeful future of this movement.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>What does it mean to you to be involved in the planning of the Ethnic Studies Summit? In what ways have you been involved? <\/strong><\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4822\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4822\" style=\"width: 206px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-4822\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/education\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/83\/2019\/04\/Jacky-Dang.jpeg\" alt=\"Jacky Dang '20\" width=\"206\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/education\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/83\/2019\/04\/Jacky-Dang.jpeg 515w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/education\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/83\/2019\/04\/Jacky-Dang-275x300.jpeg 275w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 206px) 100vw, 206px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4822\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Jacky Dang &#8217;20<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>Jacky:<\/strong> Last year I was an attendee, and it changed the course of my career. What the Ethnic Studies Summit means to me is that I, as a person of color here at Chapman, sometimes feel like I am \u201cothered.\u201d At this conference, I was able to find people and workshops that spoke to me, and having that space to be able to freely talk about myself without feeling judgement is so important.<\/p>\n<p>I work on the workshop committee, where we read the workshops that people submit, and we create the guidelines for it.\u00a0I also work along with the Africana Studies self-design minor, so I helped push for a workshop for that. I am also working with the youth center at Orange to help promote more children\u2019s artwork at the Ethnic Studies Summit. I think it is so important to have kids connect with their identities so young. I never had that opportunity to connect with my identity until I was 20, so being able to give the kids the opportunity to see how their lives are affected, but also have positive outcomes because of who they are, is so important.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Who are some of the guest speakers you have reached out to during the planning process?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Daniel:<\/strong> The guest speakers have been with some class lecturers who have been in my Latinx courses. I have reached out to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cla.csulb.edu\/departments\/sociology\/faculty-spotlight-dr-claudia-lopez\/\">Dr. Claudia Lopez<\/a> from Cal State Long Beach and filmmaker <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ocregister.com\/2011\/05\/05\/mendez-filmmaker-sandra-robbie-receives-honors-2\/\">Sandra Robbie<\/a>. I invited them to either join us as attendees or to conduct a workshop.\u00a0I was able to get Sandra Robbie to potentially hold a tour during that time for people who want to explore the city more and know the history of it. She might also give a guest lecture on the <a href=\"https:\/\/news.chapman.edu\/2017\/09\/26\/70-years-school-desegregation-mendez-westminster\/\">Mendez v. Westminster<\/a> case.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>What has been one of your greatest achievements throughout the planning process?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Jacky:<\/strong> My biggest achievement is being able to combine my passion with my coursework. My passion involves having more diversity within education. I am the student co-chair for the Curriculum Task Force for the Chapman Diversity Project and the student assistant for the Office of Diversity and Inclusion. I am working really hard with the Africana Studies minor in order to get that. But my goal before I graduate is to start the process for an Asian American Studies minor. It\u2019s so important to me to be able to have my work combined with my volunteer experience.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>What personal significance does this event have for you?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Daniel:<\/strong> Because the Ethnic Studies activism is a series of movements, I think it helps me to become a part of a bigger whole. It adds meaning to what I do rather than just saying \u201cOh, it\u2019s just here at Chapman, and I\u2019m just working at this event.\u201d It nurtures my sense of self.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re trying to raise awareness for ethnic rights and the importance of Ethnic Studies in the high school curriculum because that\u2019s what we\u2019re pushing for. We\u2019re hoping that people understand the value of it and the value of other knowledge that isn\u2019t Eurocentric.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4576\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4576\" style=\"width: 236px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-4576\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/education\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/83\/2018\/12\/Zavala-Miguel.jpg\" alt=\"Dr. Miguel Zavala\" width=\"236\" height=\"301\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/education\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/83\/2018\/12\/Zavala-Miguel.jpg 470w, https:\/\/blogs.chapman.edu\/education\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/83\/2018\/12\/Zavala-Miguel-235x300.jpg 235w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 236px) 100vw, 236px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4576\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Dr. Miguel Zavala<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>What is the significance of the theme, \u201cEthnic Studies Community Movements: From Resistance to Policy\u201d?<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Zavala:<\/strong> Initially, we were not thinking in the plural form of \u201cmovements\u201d; we were thinking of <em>one<\/em> movement. But somebody brought that up in the collective dialogue, and as it emerged, it was important to recognize the place-based character and nature of Ethnic Studies. Its curriculum is place-based, meaning it\u2019s about people and places. It\u2019s not about universalizing or standardizing a curriculum or an experience.<\/p>\n<p>I think we\u2019re at a juncture right now where there\u2019s a lot of gains that have been made with curriculum development. But what we\u2019re not seeing is the connection between moving from the multiple forms of resistance to policy, and I think we\u2019re in the season to think about how even Chapman can help contribute to policy-making in Orange County and in the state of California.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>What personal significance or importance does this event hold for you?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Zavala:<\/strong> For me, it\u2019s about identity, and often identity gets minimized\u2014in particular, in spaces of activism or in movement-building. It gets minimized in the rhetoric of, \u201cWell, that\u2019s just identity politics.\u201d What I would say is, no, it is about reclaiming our humanity, and that\u2019s what the Ethnic Studies Summit means for me. It\u2019s a space where I, Miguel Zavala, where I am situated now, can sit back, reflect, re-root, and think about where I come from in a serious way that\u2019s going to enable me to be better seeded, planted, or\u2014like a tree\u2014rooted in who I am so that I can therefore do the work that I do, like teacher education. I have become a better teacher educator in and through co-organizing and learning from others in the summit.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>What do you hope that people will take away from attending this event? <\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong>Zavala:<\/strong> I think one thing is that they come with an <em>ethos<\/em> towards learning, not in a purely cognitive way but that we\u2019re open. We come with open hearts and minds into this space, and that\u2019s going to allow them to experience what I\u2019m talking about on a microscale. At the end of the day, people will feel like, \u201cThere\u2019s something that happened here that was transformative for me,\u201d and that could lead to something more.<\/p>\n<p>The other part is that we re-energize ourselves toward movement-building. We need to step back, we need to heal, and we need to build solidarity. For some students, they might experience for <em>once<\/em> what education could be that\u2019s liberatory. For them, that\u2019s an important experience because then they go back into their schools and they say, \u201cI\u2019ve been saying this is okay, but no, it\u2019s not.\u201d We\u2019ve created a really productive tension. I think that through that self-transformation, there\u2019s learning at the center.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re also not here to prescribe. Sometimes, people see participants as instruments into some other goal that they\u2019ve prescribed for others. That\u2019s a total violation of the <em>ethos<\/em> and the spirit of Ethnic Studies, and it even goes against the question of rehumanization. It\u2019s really what people are going to take from it, but if what emerges toward the end of the day is a group of folks who want to commit to something different and more beyond the summit, then I think we attained what we wanted and beyond. What that will lead to, I don\u2019t know yet, but that\u2019s the beauty of it.<\/p>\n<p>We don\u2019t want to control it; we just want to see where it will go.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>This article is an excerpt from the Attallah College Undergraduate Student Newsletter.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Nicole Williams<\/strong> is a third-year <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chapman.edu\/education\/undergraduate\/integrated-education\/index.aspx\">Integrated Educational Studies<\/a> (Teaching and Learning in the Community Emphasis) and Psychology double major and a Spanish minor at Chapman University.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>For more information, visit the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chapman.edu\/education\/events\/ethnic-studies.aspx\">4th Annual Education and Ethnic Studies Summit webpage<\/a> to learn more about event and to register.<\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>4th Annual Education and Ethnic Studies Summit<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2289,"featured_media":4829,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"custom_author_name":"Nicole Williams '20","chapman_pin_hero_slider":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[88,41,93],"tags":[1015,1016,251],"class_list":["post-4820","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-community","category-events","category-students","tag-education-and-ethnic-studies-summit","tag-ethnic-studies","tag-ies"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.3 -
