“…Over the past 20 years, scholars of educational leadership have engaged in a more sustained inquiry concerning questions of power, politics, and justice (Anderson, 2009; Black & Murtadha, 2007; Marshall & Oliva, 2010; Murtadha & Watts, 2005). It is no longer an anomaly to read studies that name the root causes of achievement disparities (e.g., structural inequities in health, housing, employment, and nutrition) or demand attention to inequities beyond the school (Bertrand & Rodela, 2018; Byrne-Jiménez & Yoon, 2018; Dantley & Tillman, 2006; Green, 2015, 2017; Horsford, 2018; Khalifa, 2018). Recent scholarship has also advanced more participatory understandings of educational leadership that build toward community-driven and community-defined school transformations (Awaachia; okaate; & Chang, 2020; Horsford et al, 2019; Ishimaru, 2019; Lac & Mansfield, 2018; Warren et al, 2009).…”
