"Plantation politics" refers to the lingering impact of slavery's afterlife or how vestiges of enslavement permeate contemporary culture, including institutions of higher education (IHEs; Hartman, 2008; Squire et al., 2018; Williams et al., 2021). For Black women administrators (admins), the enduring legacy of caretaking, bodily control, and Mammification emerge as sites of resistance to counter plantation politics in predominantly white work environments (PWWEs). In PWWEs, Black women admins at IHEs endure policing (Williams, 2023), minimal support (Hornak et al., 2023), and demands to engage in identity shifting (Dickens & Chavez, 2018). These actions often lead Black women to hyper-perform (Breeden, 2021), sometimes to the detriment of their ability to remain in the profession (Williams, 2024). The authors leverage plantation politics as a concept to illustrate the demoralizing, disenfranchising, and dehumanizing conditions facing Black women admins. Thus, the purpose of this study was to explore how IHEs and agents of PWWEs mimic and extend the social dynamics and structures of plantations, as recounted by three Black women administrators.
