Dr Lisa Long
Course Director
Lisa is a Course Director for Post Graduate provision in Interdisciplinary Studies, Carnegie School of Education. She joined the Carnegie School of Education in January 2023. She has previously worked as a Senior Lecturer in Criminology at Leeds Beckett University and for a short time at Leeds Trinity University.
Lisa is an active researcher with an interest in race and racism in institutions, specifically criminal justice and education and anti-racist pedagogies. She is also an experienced research supervisor at undergraduate and postgraduate levels.
Lisa’s PhD looked at how Black and Black mixed-race people experience policing and addressed experiences of policing as both suspects and as victims of crime. Following completion of her PhD (University of Leeds, 2016), Lisa published a research monograph entitled Perpetual Suspects: A Critical Race Theory of Black and Mixed-Race experiences of Policing.
Research Interests
Lisa's current research, part funded by the Leeds Beckett Equity and Inclusion fund, adopts a mixed-methods approach to understanding how Black, women of colour and migrant women experience policing in England and Wales. If you would like to know more about the project, please get in touch with Lisa by email.
