Black women engineering students often find themselves in an uninviting space in a field dominated by White men. Thus, as Black women matriculate toward completion of their engineering degrees, they encounter instances of racism, sexism, and prejudice that result from the intersection of their race and gender. In an effort to identify and…

This study examined the impact of racial and gender intersectionality on science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) identity development and the academic achievement of Black female STEM undergraduates attending an HBCU. Research has demonstrated that the intersection of race and gender are likely to subject Black women to prejudice…

Due to the unestablished ongoing debate on Black women's leadership development, present research challenges the current discourses on the structures and processes of epistemology and opportunities in South Africa. The discussion guided research questions development and conceptualization. As a case study and based on research questions, content…

The term the "female advantage" is commonly used to describe gender inequalities in education, including in early childhood. This study seeks to problematize this idea by including the intersection of children's race and gender. This article examines race and gender disparities in teachers' perceptions of children's problem behaviors and…

Often scholarship concerning religion and spirituality overwhelmingly privileges White, male, Christian students' perspectives and fail to interrogate the interplay of cultural, gender, and racial dynamics within these investigations. Even further, very few studies examine the experiences of those who occupy multiple marginalized social…

This article synthesizes the collaborative autoethnographic reflections of three Black women administrators who worked together at a predominantly White institution. The authors examine their lived experiences, or linked fate, within the complicated structural arrangements of the university-industrial complex, as well as the damaging narratives…

"Barracoon: The Story of the Last 'Black Cargo,'" a nonfiction book by Zora Neale Hurston, was completed in 1931 but only published in 2018. Hurston's data were analyzed with race critical discourse analysis, using practice of race theory (PRT) to answer the following: How did Kossula conceptualize race over his lifetime? Inquiry…

The study examined seven early literacy classrooms to determine whether they mirrored the diversity in the classroom and community. Upstate New York has experienced double-digit increases in diversity indices since the 1980s. Instruction must keep apace. Analysis of observation and interview data using Constant Comparative Analysis and Classical…

This article takes a critical approach to unsettling the apathy around Black girls' and women's mathematics achievement and participation. I discuss how prevailing narratives about White girls and women, as well as Black boys and men, make the existence of coherent narratives of Black girls and women in mathematics essentially impossible. I argue…

The 2015 Black student revolt at the University of Missouri (UM) Columbus will not be easily forgotten. The revolt, which led to the expulsion of both UM System President and Columbus campus Chancellor, is an example of what happens when a community of Black graduate, undergraduate, and student athletes become one. In this article the authors…

The ways in which U.S. scholars and researchers of higher education conceptualize "race" shapes inquiry and ultimately knowledge creation and dissemination of scholarship, research, and policy contributing to the U.S. Latinx education pipeline. This conceptual study addresses the symbolic violence of what "passing for White" as…

Researchers sought to demonstrate that live exposure to racial microaggressions would lead to immediate cognitive depletion among Black college women at a predominantly White institution, if they identified race as central to their self-concept. One week prior to visiting the research lab, participants completed a measure of racial centrality via…

As this country's K-12 student population becomes increasingly racially heterogeneous, the preponderance of its teachers remains White and female. Inspired by this phenomenon, the purpose of this article is to examine the shortage of Black men teachers using critical race theory (CRT). The precepts of CRT used in this examination are the…

Using interview and observational data in one rural southern high school, this study explores how students are organized by race and how they negotiate those arrangements in predominantly Black school context. Although predominantly Black schools can provide safe spaces for Black students to thrive socially and academically without suspicion of…

Despite efforts made by educators and policymakers, disproportionality in special education and discipline persists for low-income, African American students. Through the lens of Multicultural Counseling Theory (MCT), this quantitative study investigated the likelihood of school counselors recommending students for advanced and remedial…
