Racial Battle Fatigue: The Unspoken Burden of Black Women Faculty in LIS
Chancellor, Renate L.
Journal of Education for Library and Information Science, v60 n3 p182-189 2019
African-American women faculty are told that contemporary educational and professional institutions, particularly at historically White institutions (HWIs), are places where they can succeed. However, in these institutions, many Black women faculty are exposed to racial and gender discrimination and are subjected to Racial Battle Fatigue. This article explores experiences of Black female faculty and describes the challenges they endure in higher education.
