RJI Scholars meet approximately biweekly during two academic semesters to share and comment on works in progress. Scholars also present their work during the Provost’s lunchtime seminar series.

Coined by DataCenter, an Oakland-based community research organization, research justice “is a strategic framework that seeks to transform structural inequities in research… [it] is achieved when marginalized communities are recognized as experts, and reclaim, own and wield all forms of knowledge and information.” RJI encourages scholars to consider new forms of knowledge production that challenge traditional research hierarchies, mobilize the leadership of those directly affected by the phenomena we investigate, and acknowledge and engage subaltern ways of knowing. RJI supports research that centers an intersectional analysis of race, class, gender, sexuality, religion and nation, within a context of globalization and transnationality.
