In Liberatory Research Teams, Labs, and Collectives, Phelps-Ward, Brown, and Bankole provide guidance for research team leaders and members aspiring to facilitate research teams from a liberatory, human-centered, equitable perspective.

Whether leading a lab in chemistry and engineering, research team in the humanities or fine arts, or research collectives and collaboratives in the social sciences (e.g., psychology, social work, education, etc.), the authors provide rich examples, checklists, and resources facilitators and team members can begin using immediately to guide their everyday work. Through discussions on orienting research lab members and onboarding at the beginning of the text, to conversations about envisioned futures for research teams given the forecasted landscape of postsecondary education at the end of the text, this book contributes to the leadership, research methods, faculty, and graduate student development literature.

This text is a guide for those who desire a path to research team facilitation counter to how they may have been socialized in their terminal degree training, whether formally or informally, and aligned with values that center social justice and collective thriving. When the people on research teams thrive, so does the research, and ultimately, the broader impact of those in society.
