Historically, Black men have had limited opportunities to obtain doctoral degrees or faculty positions at U.S. institutions of higher education. Few interventions exist to change historical trends and promote positive examples of successful Black male scholars. Using a collaborative autoethnographic methodological approach, we share our personal narratives as Black male scholars while vividly detailing how our involvement in a program for doctoral students of color positively influenced our career trajectories. More specifically, we discuss how the Bell Fellows Program offered us a peer-to-peer support network, Black male faculty and staff mentors, financial resources, as well as the social and intellectual capital necessary to successfully earn our doctoral degrees and acquire faculty positions in our respective fields.
