Anisa Yudawanti (she/her) is a PhD Candidate in Race, Inequality, and Language in Education in the Graduate School of Education. She comes to Stanford by way of the Midwest and West Sumatra, Indonesia.

Drawing on her experience as a community-based youth worker and high school social studies teacher, Anisa's research moves us to consider what studies of space and movement can bring to bear on our understanding of schools. Her scholarship sits at the intersections of education studies, Black and critical geographies, and abolition and carceral studies. Her current study examines schools as sites of enclosure and how racially marked youth navigate school space through the lens of escape and fugitivity. She situates her inquiry in the Midwest and the Bay Area.
