Author: Nina Malagi
Bio: Nina Malagi was born and raised in London, but works and raises her tribe in New Jersey. She graduated from The University of Sussex in the U.K. from the School of African Asian Studies and earned a master’s in English literature. She was one of the first people to outsource herself to teach at an Indian university but happily abandoned her Ph.D. studies in comparing Kalidas to Shakespeare to join an experimental school focused on interactive and collaborative learning sponsored by the IBO. She was an editor for an English textbook that was used by millions of children in India to teach English with a decolonized pedagogy. She has taught in Paris, London and New Jersey. She is actively involved in her community, engaged in social justice and volunteers to help train teens to record and publish oral histories of their own immigrant community experiences.
