Summary
Gaming, whether digital or traditional, carries significant real-world implications, as highlighted by Arizona State University alum Kishonna L. Gray's research on marginalized communities. As the 2024 Lincoln Center Visiting Scholar, Gray discussed the intersection of games, identity, and social norms, urging a reevaluation of game interactions' effects on historically marginalized groups. Her work critiques violence normalization in digital spaces and explores the impact of gaming on emerging technologies. Gray's visit to ASU included workshops on intersectional game design and practical gaming sessions, emphasizing inclusivity and ethical considerations. Her return to ASU signifies a homecoming in her pioneering work in gaming studies.
