Daniel Alejandro González

Daniel Alejandro González is a critical arts educator, filmmaker, editor, and author whose work centers on multilingual, multicultural, and digital literacy for diverse communities. He is a co‑editor and co‑author of Multicultural Literature for Latino Bilingual Children: Their Words, Their Worlds and its Second Edition, comprehensive theory‑to‑practice volumes that address the social, cultural, academic, and linguistic needs of Latino bilingual children and the educators who serve them.

González’s research focuses on how creativity and critical reflection can challenge dominant narratives and promote belonging, learning, mastery, and intellectual growth, with particular attention to social positionalities in intercultural and institutional contexts. His praxis emphasizes building coalitions, managing conflict in intercultural settings, and curbing administrative violence, and he contributes to the broader field of Latino children’s literature through editorial and scholarly work in education and literacy.
