Navigating white academe during crisis: The impact of COVID‐19 and racial violence on women of color professionals
基于25名有色人种女性学者的在线调查，探讨COVID-19和种族暴力如何加剧她们在学术机构中的种族与性别不平等，并分析机构应对种族主义话语的方式如何影响她们的职业发展。
Abstract Scholars have shown that women of color experience racial and gender aggressions in different workplaces but strategically in predominantly white institutions. This article explores how women of color professionals in academic institutions perceive their experiences during this time of multiple pandemics induced by COVID‐19 and racial violence. By examining research on women of color in academe and other white institutional spaces, we discuss how systemic racism is embedded within organizational practices that sustain racial inequality. Drawing on data from a qualitative online survey of women of color in academe ( n = 25), our theoretically grounded research employs Black feminist thought as a methodological practice to examine how COVID‐19 and racial violence have impacted women of color through the continued perpetuation of racial and gender inequities. The findings provide important insights on how institutional responses to public discourses about racism can influence the experiences of women of color and their career trajectories.
