Dr. Nicole Neverson鈥檚 research is grounded in critical mass media analysis, the mediated representation of marginalized groups, and the sociological aspects of sports. Her most recent publication examines how winter sports culture in Canada offers us the opportunity to understand whiteness, race, and white supremacy via seemingly benign and ritualistic cultural practices. Another recent publication examines how Canadian perspectives on CEWs (conducted energy weapons) and their use by police changed before and after the death of Robert Dziekanski. A recent work of hers examines the complex and competing diaspora media discourses constructed around blackness as identity via the Toronto Africentric Alternative School.

Dr. Neverson also has scholarly interests in critical pedagogy which are exemplified in a collaborative project with department colleagues entitled,  (PDF file) Inhabiting Critical Spaces: Teaching and Learning from the Margins at 果酱视频 (PDF file)  (2013; PDF, 227 KB). Her most recent research collaborations include examining identity, community building, and embodiment in youth who engage with programming and events LaunchPad, a charitable affiliate of Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment (MLSE).
