Professor Bio
Sang Hea Kil received her doctorate degree fromArizona State University in May 2007. She has
received numerous awards for her work. For example, she was a Future of
Minority Studies Mellon Fellow (2005-6), Davis-Putter Scholar-Activist Fellow
(2003-4), and Ethnic Minority Fellow for the American Society of Criminology
(2001-2).
Her research focuses on the nexus between immigration and
crime, media and discourse analysis, and whiteness and nationalism within a
critique of racism and the social construction of USA-Mexico border. Sang has
several works, published and forthcoming, single and co-authored, in such edited
editions as: Traversing Transnationalism: The Horizons of Literary and Cultural
Studies, Immigration and Crime: Race, Ethnicity, and Violence, and such academic
journals as Social Justice, and Violence against Women.
She is
also interested in pedagogy, social justice, and coalition work within a
scholar-activist perspective that stems from her political work around issues of
human rights, anti-globalization, women of color, and anti-war efforts.
Her interests also stems from her approach to the classroom as an activist site
for critical thinking and consciousness-raising.
Sang is currently working on her manuscript based on her
dissertation entitled, "Covering the Border War: How the News Media Create Race,
Crime, Nation and the USA-Mexico Divide."
