Introduction
Due to the increasing importance of diverse women’s concerns globally, the study of minority women is critically vital for professional women in law, medicine, and business, as well as social work, education, and arts and sciences. Without a doubt, the study of women and race in education, policy institutions, development, media, social work, and the private sector are a conscious effort to exam the intersection of gender, race and how it is managed by women in the struggle.
Objective
This text seeks to uncover the institutionalized racism of higher education and women of color; as well as how it is navigated by women of color. This text is relevant because less than one percent of academia is represented by women of color. Even more so, these same women experience much difficulty in advocacy and leadership, as well as tenure and promotion. Through a critical lens, the narrative of that difficulty will be unpacked examined and deconstructed by the very women on the receiving end of these aggressions.
Target Audience
This manuscript will be utilized in gender studies, educational administration, women's studies, educational policy, educational leadership, sociology, and psychology. Key features that make this book unique and important: My manuscript proposal is different from the titles listed above because it utilizes a prescribed narrative methodology and high structured framework to tell the authentic story of each woman. This manuscript is different because it is based on an organic narrative that tracks patterns and behaviors associated with micro and macro aggressions in a specific environment.
