Critical Commentary
AK: Alison Kenner is Associate Professor of Politics and a faculty member in the Center for Science, Technology, and Society at Drexel University. Her first book, Breathtaking: Asthma Care in a Time of Climate Change (University of Minnesota Press, 2018), documents how care is materialized at different scales to address the U.S. asthma epidemic. From 2014-2020, Kenner led the Philadelphia Health and Environment Ethnography Lab (PHEEL), which facilitated collaborative projects between Drexel students, governmental and nongovernmental partners, and community organizations. Her latest research, The Energy Rights Project, looks at how organizations address energy vulnerability in the U.S. Mid-Atlantic region.
