Overview

African American faculty in higher education often encounter microaggressions that reflect and reinforce broader systems of racial inequality. These instances can include questioning their credentials, misidentifying them as non-faculty, or expecting them to represent the entire Black experience. While less overt than traditional forms of racism, microaggressions carry significant psychological and professional consequences, contributing to feelings of isolation, burnout, and underappreciation. Further understanding of these experiences can foster inclusive academic environments where all scholars thrive and contribute to their institutions. Microaggressions Faced by African American Faculty in Higher Education explores the microaggressive behaviors that affect African American educators experiences. It will examine the ways that universities can engage in the creation of inclusive environments, and the impact of microaggressions on faculty health and wellbeing. This book covers topics such as ethics and law, mental health, and inclusive education, and is a useful resource for educators, sociologists, psychologists, academicians, researchers, and scientists.
