As Dr. Warren-Grice explains, “I created Liberated Genius to help organizations start from the premise that Black and Brown students are geniuses.” Dr. Warren-Grice has served as an Equity Scholar with the Pitt School of Education and recently worked with the Remake Learning network on a project focused on Shifting Power in Educational Research and Development. Some of Dr. Warren-Grice's work can be sampled here.

Her research examines the educational pathways of Chicana/Latina first-generation college students, Chicana/Latina mothers, in particular mother-daughter pedagogies, and the development and analysis of Chicana/Latina feminist pedagogies and research methodologies. Dr. Flores has also applied critical race theory in education to examine the impact of “microaggressions” on students and scholars of color in higher education. Some of Dr. Flores' work can be sampled here.
