Title |
Racialized Social Relations in Higher Education : Black Student and Faculty Experiences of a Canadian University
|
Abstract |
The author examines racialized social relations in Canadian higher education from the site of Montreal's McGill University. Drawing on anticolonial and critical race theories and using methods of institutional ethnography/ political activist ethnography, the author studies how Black people describe and analyze their experiences at the university, how the university's institutional texts and discourses shape their activities, and how neoliberalism may be altering these relations. Former and current Black students and faculty members describe experiences of racialization mediated by differences of gender, nationalism, culture and class. The author points out that Black people's activities at the university over the past five decades have consistently involved navigating the racialized and racializing environment and working for anticolonial, anti-racist change through community and coalition building, various forms of service work within the university, organizing non-formal teaching and learning, and political activism. The author demonstrates the importance of this work in developing critical consciousness, contesting colonial-capitalist ideology and maintaining and furthering the emancipatory potential of higher education.
