“Denisha is an essential voice in the early childhood education field. Her passion for equity and racial justice is evident in all she does. Denisha uses research and experience to back up her advocacy. Her scholarly work and speaking engagements focus on how educators can be equipped to engage in anti-bias and anti-racist practices in the classroom, build partnerships with families, and cultivate critical analysis among teaching staff. If you invite her to lead a session, you will witness shifts necessary for effective change.”
