584Epistemic Responsibility and Implicit BiasIn Erin Beeghly & Alex Madva (eds.), An Introduction to Implicit Bias: Knowledge, Justice, and the Social Mind, Routledge. pp. 174-190. 2020.A topic of special importance when it comes to responsibility and implicit bias is responsibility for knowledge. Are there strategies for becoming more responsible and respectful knowers? How might we work together, not just as individuals but members of collectives, to reduce the negative effects of bias on what we see and believe, as well as the wrongs associated with epistemic injustice? To explore these questions, Chapter 9 introduces the concept of epistemic responsibility, a set of practic…Read more

34Communities of Epistemic Resistance: Patricia Hill Collins and the Power of Naming CommunityThe Pluralist 15 (1): 74-82. 2020.in her 2010 paper, "the new politics of community," Dr. Collins's argument on community as conceptually and practically a political construct provides a vital connection to the American philosophical tradition, particularly the work of W. E. B. Du Bois and John Dewey. In my response to her paper, I combine components of her argument with her earlier work in black feminist epistemology. I tie these insights to Du Bois's and Dewey's arguments regarding how communities develop. These are then conne…Read more

14Incarceration, Health Harm, and Institutional Epistemic InjusticeIn Elizabeth Victor & Laura K. Guidry-Grimes (eds.), Applying Nonideal Theory to Bioethics: Living and Dying in a Nonideal World, Springer. pp. 285-308. 2021.We argue that people who are incarcerated and prison health workers are impacted by embodied institutional epistemic injustice. This particular epistemic state results in prison health workers practicing “health harm” instead of health care in prison medical wards. The paper begins by providing background data on incarceration, aging, and health. It then engages the concept of institutional epistemic injustice by framing it as an epistemic component of nonideal theory through the work of Charles…Read more

14The Future of Public PhilosophyIn Lee C. McIntyre, Nancy Arden McHugh & Ian Olasov (eds.), A companion to public philosophy, Wiley-blackwell. 2022.The future of public philosophy is already being practiced, developed, molded, and critiqued on the ground through the act of doing and writing about public philosophy. Thus, given the astute framings of the future of public philosophy in prior chapters, the author's contribution is going to engage two shifts that she want to emphasize: Increasing the inclusivity of who counts as a public philosopher and providing more experience‐building in public philosophy through educating and mentoring phil…Read more

1More than Skin Deep: Situated Communities and the Case of Agent Orange in Viet Nam,”In Heidi Grasswick (ed.), Feminist Epistemology and Philosophy of Science: Power in Knowledge, Springer. 2011.I build upon feminist arguments for situated knowledge and pragmatist arguments for experimental inquiry to articulate and argue for an approach that I refer to as situated communities. This approach seeks to generate effective and ethical scientific research practices by asking that researchers focus on communities in their complex environment as subjects of study instead of relying primarily on clinical trials and laboratory research. Communities should be recognized as situated epistemic agen…Read more

I argue for a practice I call empiricial reflexivity as a method to enhance democracy in science. ;After a review of the literature, I begin by analyzing the beginnings of the co-development of liberal democracy and science in the seventeenth-century by investigating the relation between John Locke and Robert Boyle. I argue that liberalism and science were used to bolster and secure …Read more
