Dr. Kimberly B. George  is an expert in psychosocial theories of writing, pedagogy, and feminist social change. Bridging her training in ethnic studies, gender studies, religious history, and psychodynamic theory, her research is committed to transdisciplinary interventions in systemic, material, and epistemic violence. As a theorist of multiracial feminisms and writing practices, her pedagogy values somatic and affective literacies, contemplative practices, and historical methods informed by working class and women-of-color feminisms. She is passionate about recovering the historical voices of women’s grassroots coalitionary movements for radical change.

 

In addition to her commitment to scholarship, her mission for two decades has been to open the enclosures of academia to support lifelong learning and to innovate education that is more accessible to adult learners than in most university settings. For 15 years, she has designed and taught uniquely transformative programs to support K-12 religious educators, psychotherapists, and clergy in feminist, decolonial, and critical race frameworks. (See her online classes at Feminism School.) As part of this work, for a decade she has created curriculum  for men to learn feminist theory and practices.

Before her academic path, she trained as a therapist, a foundation shaping her  curricular strategies and trauma-informed pedagogy.

She is completing a monograph on feminist writing practices and the teaching and learning methods that intervene in epistemic violence.  In fall of 2026, she is teaching Writing Multiplicity, Finding Voice: Writing as Spiritual Activism at Union Theological Seminary. Dr. George is available for writing retreats and workshops that support graduate students, faculty, and spiritual leaders.
