About Keitha-Gail

Keitha-Gail Martin-Kerr serves as Associate Professor of Teaching and Department Associate Chair in the Department of Curriculum and Instruction at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities College of Education and Human Development. She earned her PhD in Curriculum and Instruction from the University of Minnesota in 2016, an MA from Touro College in New York, an MS from City University of New York, and a BA from Northern Caribbean University in Jamaica. Her research interests converge at the intersection of collective memory work, elementary education, teacher education, experiences of being Black, and living queerly. As a teacher educator, her pedagogy centers on resistance to normativity and anti-oppressive practices. She has authored numerous publications addressing queer pedagogy, educational inclusivity, equity and social justice, reflective practices in teacher preparation, and feminist approaches to online pedagogy. Keitha-Gail identifies as a queer Black immigrant from Jamaica and lives in Minnesota with her partner and daughter.
