JaeHan Bae is a Professor in the Department of Art Education at the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh. He holds a Ph.D. from Florida State University and specializes in art education with a focus on social justice, visual culture, and community-based pedagogy. His research critically examines anti-Asian racism, intercultural dialogue, and equity in art education through activist frameworks.

Research Interests: Bae's scholarship centers on transformative art pedagogy that addresses systemic inequities. Key areas include:

• Community-based art projects fostering intercultural peace (e.g., murals, Sotdae traditions)
• Critical race theory applications in K-12 and higher education
• Counter-narratives of Asian American educators confronting marginalization
• Decolonizing art curricula through non-Western perspectives

Publication Trends: Recent works (2022-2025) demonstrate a strong focus on anti-racism, Asian American identities, and social justice pedagogy. Over 80% analyze structural inequities through qualitative lenses like autoethnography, interviews, and discourse analysis. Recurrent themes include counternarratives, intersectionality, and art as a tool for racial justice.
