Reviews
The anti-Blackness and systemic racism that have fundamentally influenced the academy are conveyed powerfully in this book. The authors have exposed the foundational insecurity embedded in academic culture, values, and processes that seeks to destroy Black intellectual contributions and well-being. This is a must-read for those who can handle the truth!
Black Scholarship in a White Academy brings together a cadre of trailblazing scholars to examine ongoing systemic barriers and anti-Blackness behaviors that impact and impede the progress of Black scholars. It is an invaluable resource for resistance and resilience, and ultimately transforming higher education to address organizational disparities.
