federal poverty line while more billionairesare created daily, police budgets swell, an eviction crisis looms, and climate change rapidlyaccelerates, the depth and breadth of the connections of technological advancement to mutuallyreinforcing systems of oppression in the United States have prompted a need to re-examineengineering education [1]-[5]. Given this dire state, it is critical that the engineering communitygrapples with the role engineers play in perpetuating fatal couplings of power and difference andthe steps that can be taken to disrupt the systems and cycles of violence from which theseinequitable couplings stem [6]. As Winner [7] noted, engineers engage in tasks that embed powerrelations into the technologies they produce and
