Conceptualizing Anti-Blackness at a Hispanic-Serving Research University
This study examined the experiences of Black students attending a Hispanic-Serving Research University (HSRU). Utilizing a mixed-methods Black Student Belonging Survey, the research team sought to understand how Black students across Afro-diasporic communities, including students who self-identify as Black, Afro-Latinx, Afro-Indigenous, West African, and others, described their encounters within an HSRU. Findings from this study revealed that the…
Feminist decoloniality as care in higher education
Black women academics in the United States of America and South Africa deploying principles of Feminist Decoloniality as Care (Femdac) to confront experiences with microaggressions
While several studies detail the experiences of university students with racial and gender harassment, bullying, and microaggressions, few explore these phenomena among Black women faculty members in higher education transnationally. This article makes a novel contribution by examining Black women’s agentic responses to marginalising experiences in higher education. Black women’s extraordinary efforts to succeed in westernised universities built …
African Women ICT and Neoliberal Politics
A Proposal for Expanding Endarkened Transnational Feminist Praxis
Western researchers often do not incorporate the voices of African women in their research endeavors; and a serious engagement in women's health activism in Zimbabwe cannot happen without this preliminary step. Endarkened feminist epistemologies have theorized a social science that refuses to sidestep African women's perspectives. As a corrective to conceptual quarantining of Black (African and African diasporic) feminist thought, the exciting bo…
HIV/Aids, gender, agency and empowerment issues in Africa
A Black Feminist Analysis of Responses to War, Racism, and Repression
In March 2003, the US government launched a military invasion and occupation of Iraq. This was one more phase of the US National Security Strategy doctrine that promises militarism, war, and disruption in various sovereign states. These wars abroad and the unprecedented powers of government and police agencies in the USA represent powerful intersections of patriarchal authority, racism, militarism, and elitism. Africana communities have a long hi…
The Black Radical Congress and Black Feminist Organizing
Models for Unity between Scholarship and Grassroots Activism
Institutional constraints hinder the activist scholar who seeks to create alternative models for scholarship and social transformation. In this paper, I discuss results from a survey administered to Africana scholars on the Association of Black Sociologists listserv and other discussion groups servicing progressive scholars and students on the internet. The primary objective of the survey was to elicit comments on ways that Africana scholars bala…
On Our Own Terms
Agents of Knowledge and Action
This article examines some of the contributions of subjugated peoples' knowledges to 'western' social science, particularly focusing on the development of analyses of race, class, and gender as interlocking spheres in which domination occurs. Often work on race, class, and gender intersectionality is taught and is understood as an outgrowth of academic western feminist inquiry that is attempting to acknowledge and embrace difference and eschew es…
