With ongoing racial tensions, terms such as antiracism and diversity, equity, inclusion (DEI) are buzzwords on campuses across the United States. Yet resources, especially in management education, to teach privilege and intersectionality are limited. This article introduces four reflection exercises I have found valuable in facilitating students'…

The study aimed to assess how intersectional factors such as race, gender identity, occupation, or other markers of one's identity may contribute to the attrition of Black women special education teachers. More specifically, this study sought to reveal the unique challenges that Black women in special education experience as opposed to the…

Background/Context: Although research on the experiences of multiply-marginalized Black and Brown students with dis/abilities in higher education is limited, this growing body of work indicates that these students navigate racialized perceptions of ability, which impact their experiences on college and university campuses. This research highlights…

Background/Context: This paper explores how intersectionality and DisCrit can be used as analytic tools to scaffold preservice teachers' ability to see the ways in which referrals to and services within special education reproduce inequities as a function of race and perceptions of ability that are rooted in White, middle-class, able-bodied norms.…

Background: In U.S. contexts, the language of "quality" early childhood education is widely invoked to evaluate the "goodness" of teaching and learning and is often leveraged in attempts to ameliorate inequities. Likewise, efforts to define and achieve generalizable conceptualizations of early childhood quality often guide what…

Despite the representation and significance of Asian American students to enrollment and graduation goals of U.S. colleges and universities, Asian Americans are fundamentally invisible in critical leadership roles that make decisions and drive policy at these institutions. Scholarship points to racism and white supremacy in U.S. higher education…

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 "racialized social control infrastructure" of schools refers to the over-emphasis on controlling the behaviors and bodies of Black, and other, students of color. Politicized caring, or the strategic prioritization of the needs and desires of those traditionally marginalized, may be disruptive to it. The objective of this analysis is…

In tenure and promotion denial lawsuits against historically White institutions, Black professors submit evidence of discrimination based on implicit and explicit bias and gendered racism, yet legal redress rarely occurs because many courts will not recognize structural inequities as a persisting reality in academia. Informed by intersectional…

The purpose of this study was to explore the experiences of undergraduate Black gay men who use hook up and dating apps while attending predominantly White colleges and universities. In using intersectionality as my theoretical framework, I was able to discover the essence of the experiences that Black gay men face while using these platforms.…

Black women's pathway into the professoriate is an area of academic research that has been largely understudied. Contemporary research investigating the lack of representation of Black women in the professoriate reveal that the underrepresentation of Black women in faculty positions is the result of complex and intersecting factors, including…
