Minority Voices From the Academic Superstructure

Beschreibung:

Neuware - The experiences of racial minorities in the United States education system remains a pivotal point of academic discourse. Academicians and researchers are concerned with the lived experiences of minority faculty of African, Latino, Asian, and Native American origins, particularly in predominantly White colleges and universities (PWCUs). Using critical race theory (CRT) and postcolonial studies, researchers may understand minority experiences through the backdrop of a history of slavery and European colonialism, and the enduring white hegemonic academic superstructure. Minority Voices From the Academic Superstructure explores the current state of minority experiences in academia while offering effective coping strategies through the lens of CRT principles and postcolonial theory. It calls for improved academic diversity and inclusion by pointing out educational underrepresentation. This book covers topics such as minorities in education, systemic racism, and educational administration and learning, and is a useful resource for academicians, education professionals, administrators, sociologists, historians, economists, researchers, and business owners.
