Introduction to the July 2026 Issue
Abstract
We are pleased to announce our first issue of 2026, featuring essays submitted for the
Critical Issues section with focused editorial support from Beth Blue Swadener. Her
comprehensive introduction offers insight to the popularity of this new section as we face
complex and baffling political turns that leave folks in ECE and academia searching for
ways to share their perspectives and work for needed change. We thank the authors of
the eight essays included in this issue and look forward to this ongoing section,
foregrounding provocations through critical personal narratives, in future issues.
