and meets evolving objectives in both.

Rightful Presence
Rightful presence is a critical justice framework that explores guest/host relationships, calling into question who has the right to be present within a space, how they are allowed to contribute, and who determines their role within the space (Calabrese Barton & Tan, 2019). In educational settings, Calabrese Barton and Tan have extended the concept of rightful presence into an educational framework to center political struggle, illuminate injustice, and disrupt power hierarchies within the classroom (2019; 2020). More than inclusion, rightful presence is the reauthoring of rights through practices that center students’ ways of knowing and their presence within classroom spaces. In particular, Calabrese Barton and Tan’s research in STEM classrooms has demonstrated how teachers can foster rightful presence practices within the classroom community, encompassing informal and formal practices that center political struggle, make injustices visible, and reauthor rights to redistribute power.
