Nana Osei-Kofi is Professor of Women, Gender, & Sexuality Studies and Director of the Difference, Power, and Discrimination Program at Oregon State University. As a critical feminist scholar, her research employs two lines of inquiry centered on justice and the politics of difference. One line of inquiry focuses on structural shifts in higher education in the service of equity and access through curriculum transformation, change leadership, and faculty recruitment, retention, and development. The second line of inquiry centers on the worldwide African diaspora with a focus on Blackness in the Nordics.
