This methodology illuminated ways that many institutions, including academia,were designed and continue to operate without her well-being in mind.Researchers have investigated epistemological and ontological ways that marginalized peoplesengage with STEM. Wilson-Lopez et al.’s investigation of funds of knowledge in Latinxadolescent approaches to engineering demonstrated ways that “participants’ everyday skills andbodies of knowledge aligned with engineering practices” [16, p. 278].

Belonging is necessary for all human beings to achieve their full potential. Theconstruct of belongingness was well established by the early 2000’s and has been applied inschool and college settings (see Strayhorn [7] for a comprehensive review).

Thelimits of this single example are many: as a single example case, it doesn’t clarify the many waysacademic reviewing processes do harm for scholars from different positionalities or illustrate themany strategies authors can use to recognize, reveal, reject, and replace the harm and inequitythey encounter. However, these additional strategies are illustrated in our findings and suggestthat the 4Rs and the margin of maneuverability comprise an applied theory useful for addressinginequities within and outside of the academy.[1] D.

However, littledid I know that while this may be true, the cost to anyone not a tall white male from a privilegedbackground was great.
