Education[edit]

Tuck is a member of the Aleut Community of St. Paul Island, Alaska.[4] She spent her formative years living in Pennsylvania.[5] Tuck graduated in 2001 with her Bachelor of Arts in writing and education studies from Eugene Lang College The New School for Liberal Arts. In 2008 Tuck received her Doctor of Philosophy in Urban Education from The Graduate Center, City University of New York.[6]

From 2011 to 2012 Tuck held a Ford Foundation Postdoctoral Fellowship. During the fellowship her work focused on Indigenous research ethics. In 2015 Tuck was selected as a William T. Grant Foundation Scholar (2015-2020). Her project for this $350,000 grant is titled "Migrant Youth, Deferred Action and Postsecondary Outcomes."[7] In addition to her research work Tuck is an Associate Professor in the department of Social Justice Education at the University of Toronto's Ontario Institute For Studies in Education.[6] She also currently sits on the University of Toronto's Truth and Reconciliation Commission Steering Committee.[8]

In 2017 Tuck was awarded a Tier 2 Canada Research Chair in Indigenous Methodologies with Youth and Communities at the Ontario Institute For Studies in Education.[9]

Professional activities[edit]

Tuck is currently the co-editor of Critical Ethnic Studies, a journal published by the University of Minnesota Press.[10] She is also the co-editor of the Indigenous and Decolonizing Studies in Education book series published by Routledge. Tuck shares both of these editorial positions with K. Wayne Yang.[11]

Tuck has also held numerous positions with the American Educational Research Association including: program co-chair of curriculum studies (2015-2017), positions on the executive committee, and the Indigenous Peoples of the Americas Special Interest Group.[12]

In partnership with K. Wayne Yang, Eve Tuck is the co-founder of the Land Relationships Super Collective. This grassroots community based collective aims to provide a support network for those engaged in land-based collaboration and decolonization work.[5] Similar to her work with the Lands Relationships Super Collective Tuck has been active in the Ogimaa Mikana Project since 2013. The Ogimaa Mikana Project is an initiative to replace street signs in Toronto, Ontario with Indigenous place names, raising awareness about stolen land, Indigenous history, and decolonization.[13]

Tuck is also one of the founders and creators of The Henceforward podcast which examines the relationships between Indigenous and Black peoples in North America.[14] Tuck's work on The Henceforward reflects a desire to see increased conversations between Black and Indigenous scholars. Tuck has involved her graduate students in the production and hosting of the show.[15]

She is well known for her advocacy relating to decolonization and Indigenization and her calls for education and post-secondary institutions to take more tangible actions to Indigenization.[16] At the University of Toronto, Tuck has actively worked to organize community events and make spaces more welcoming for Indigenous students.[17] Tuck is also the co-creator of the citation practices challenges which encourages scholars to think critically about the politics of citation.[18]
