New Article! with my academic family, @Fharris3, @DrKingTina, @IdaraEssien16. On racelighting. Informed by the sociological concept of gaslighting, racelighting is an act of psychological manipulation whereby people of color receive messages that make them second-guess themselves and their lived experiences with race and racism. The purpose of this article is to propose racelighting as a theoretical construct to enhance understanding of the impact of race and racism on the well-being and success of students and educators of color in community colleges. The antecedents, key constructs, and consequences of racelighting, along with examples of its manifestation in community colleges are discussed in this article. In addition, salient implications of racelighting for students, faculty, classified professionals, and senior administrators are presented. The article concludes with recommendations for practice and future research on racelighting in educational contexts.

Here is my latest op-ed article with @Fharris3 and @DrLukeWood defining servingness at Black Serving Institutions – when you read it, you’ll understand why this designation demands the support of the Governor and the Legislature. lsc-pagepro.mydigitalpublication.com/publication/?i…

A police officer just killed an innocent black woman, and here is Trump saying he will give them all immunity.

Maduro appears to be getting destroyed in the elections. His supporters are taking to the streets in a show of force. Expect Maduro to declare himself the winner, claim fraud and urge his supporters on to violence. Sound familiar?

Does exposure to culturally relevant content & teaching impact success of diverse learners in the top 20 general education courses? Of course. Find out how in our new report: @mvasquez619 @DrLukeWood @Fharris3 @dr_c_b_newman everylearnereverywhere.org/resources/infu…

Enjoyed @cablackstudents with @drfharris3 & panelist! When discussing Black student success the socioeconomic status of Black students is 🔑. Removing barriers is about addressing disproportionate poverty levels. 🗣️Educators focus on programs that are closing the income gaps.
