The US Academy has a racism problem. Such racism leads to both devaluation and racial violence aimed at Faculty of Color, and particularly women in multiple disciplines. This chapter suggests everyday systemic racism is a normalized feature that continues to privilege white, hegemonic and Eurocentric structures and forms of knowledge-production while devaluing others.

This chapter examines the costs of unmasking institutional racism as it bears on constructions of both Whiteness, and status quo power imbalances.
