Jamie L. Moore, PhD, is a writer and scholar whose work centers storytelling in the Black feminist tradition. She is an English Professor at College of the Sequoias and co-writer of the Puente Equity Framework. An educator and equity leader, Jamie advocates for creating classroom spaces that foster liberation. As a professional development trainer, she emphasizes anti-assimilationist practices that enable healing for both students and educators. Her positionality as a biracial, queer woman informs her development of curricular resources that uplift intersectionality, celebrate the history of LGBT+ leaders, and prioritize the voices of Black and indigenous leaders. Jamie has presented academic and creative work at the National Conference for Race and Ethnicity, the American Association of Colleges and Universities, the Strengthening Student Success Conference, and several conferences for The Puente Project. Her languages include several Englishes, including Black English, SAE, Academic-speak and queer vernacular.
