Dr. Safiyah Rochelle is an assistant professor in the Department of Social Science.

Dr. Rochelle is a researcher whose areas of interest and teaching centers on contemporary political and legal theory, critical visual and race studies, state violence and criminalization, and the relationship between law, violence, and marginalized populations. She is currently working on two projects: the first examines racial governance and redress in the aftermath of state violence, and the second explores the spatial, visual, and imaginative boundaries of mourning and memorialization for victims of mass violence.
