Dr. Gómez’s research interrogates how educational institutions reproduce and contest racial inequity through curriculum, policy, and everyday practice. Her work draws on Critical Race Theory, decolonial thought, and sociopolitical development frameworks to examine the experiences of Latina/o/x and Black youth, the racial politics of knowledge production, and the historical entrenchment of white supremacy in U.S. schooling. Across her projects—including textbook analysis, Ethnic Studies research, and the development of the Racial Justice Model—her scholarship centers epistemic justice, community-engaged inquiry, and transformative liberation.
