Roundtable: Mobility Justice Concepts and Applications
Part 2: Using a Mobility Justice Lens to Expand Transportation Safety Research
About the Presenter
Sarah McCullough
Associate Director
Feminist Research Institute, University of California, Davis
Sarah Rebolloso McCullough, PhD, creates meaningful and respectful dialogue across boundaries that typically divide—between universities and communities, activists and researchers, scientists and humanists, workers and policymakers. She created the Asking Different Questions program, which uses gender and ethnic studies research to provide STEM researchers with the intellectual tools needed to act on commitments to justice. She also conducts applied research on cultural adaptations to climate change with a focus on sustainable transportation. Recent projects include papers on how sociocultural research can contribute to bike equity, best practices in community engagement, and an assessment of transportation equity work in California. She is a participant in The Untokening Collective and helped co-produce the Principles of Mobility Justice. She is Associate Director of the Feminist Research Institute and earned her PhD in Cultural Studies at UC Davis.

Brozen Madeline
Madeline Brozen is the Deputy Director for the Lewis Center for Regional Policy Studies and a transportation researcher. Her research focuses on the transportation needs for marginalized and vulnerable populations and how transportation connects people to opportunity. Focusing on collaborative research approaches, Madeline’s research tackles intersectional issues in transportation equity at the confluence of race, income, gender, and age. Her previous research includes work on park design for older adults, parklet design and evaluation, and street performance metrics. Her professional background includes GIS and remote sensing and she commonly incorporates spatial analysis in her work. She previously managed the UCLA complete streets initiative and is a current member of the Mobility Justice Research Network and the Investing in Place advisory board.

Gordon Douglas
Gordon Douglas is an assistant professor of urban and regional planning at San José State University and director of SJSU's Institute for Metropolitan Studies. Gordon’s research, teaching, and community work focus on questions of access, equity, and local cultural identity in urban planning and design. His work on do-it-yourself urbanism, including his 2018 book The Help-Yourself City (Oxford, 2018), has been featured in The Washington Post, 99% Invisible, Streetsblog, and KQED Forum, among other outlets. His writing and photography have appeared in a range of publications including City and Community, Urban Studies, the Journal of Urban Design and a variety of magazines, newspapers, and blogs. He has also been interviewed as an expert on topics ranging from gentrification to graffiti and street art for stories in the Los Angeles Times, San Francisco Chronicle, Fast Company, the National Post (Toronto), La Presse (Montreal), and multiple TV news outlets in the Bay Area. Born in London and raised in Northern California, Gordon received his doctorate in sociology from the University of Chicago and also holds degrees from the University of Southern California and the London School of Economics.
