Story(ing) Statistical Strategies Using a Critical Race Feminista Quantitative Praxis is a groundbreaking book that reimagines the relationship between storytelling, mathematics, and statistics. Grounded in Critical Race Theory and Chicana Feminist traditions, the text demonstrates how stories can animate numbers, challenging deficit narratives and reclaiming the mathematical wisdom and genius of Communities of Color.

Through personal narratives, theoretical insights, and methodological innovations, the authors chart a pathway for transforming statistical practices into acts of resistance, remembrance, and care. Each chapter interweaves lived experiences of exclusion and resilience with critical frameworks such as racial realism, intersectionality, and cultural intuition. The book foregrounds how story(ing) numbers — treating data as narrative and action — opens possibilities for reclaiming mathematics as a communal, embodied, and justice-oriented practice. Case studies on educational pipelines, GIS mapping, and epistemic network analysis illustrate how computational tools can be repurposed to visualize inequities while honoring the dignity of marginalized communities. Ultimately, this work offers a praxis for engaging data in ways that resist invisibility, expose structural inequities, and advance equity, healing, and liberation.

This book is written for scholars, graduate students, educators, and practitioners across education, sociology, ethnic studies, and data sciences. It will especially benefit those interested in critical methodologies, QuantCrit, Women of Color feminist theory, Chicana Feminist and approaches to research—providing tools to rethink how numbers and stories together can advance justice in education and beyond
