My name is April Donahue, and I'm a graduate assistant with Learning for Life at Rhode Island College. I am a student in the Joint PhD in Education held between RIC and the University of Rhode Island. I received my Master's in History from Rhode Island College in 2017, and my Bachelor's in History from the University of New Mexico in 2013. My research interests include poverty and inequality, resistence and protest, equity in higher education, transformative education, and educational policy. I spend most of my spare time with my partner and children focusing on the everyday achievements and challenges. On the rare occasion get to have a quiet moment to myself, I enjoy the sounds of silence or nature.

    Maybe we can talk more at some point about your interests in resistance and protest. That is a topic that is intriguing to me as well and I would love to learn more!

      Katie, we can absolutely talk more in depth on the topic. I look forward to it!

    After a long day of teaching and talking, I totally enjoy silence, too! I like to sit on my back deck and relax with a coffee or tea, and take a little mindfulness moment. Then, its back to the grind.
