Abstract
This chapter seeks to agitate the idyllic height of white patriarchy in academe by elevating Black women and our contributions to the academy. Despite being the most educated group in America, Black women are the least valued contending with gendered racism that has a unique bend and susceptibility to criticism reserved only for Black women. Black women bear the burden of care for others and frequently labor in unrecognized ways. Yet, Black women are not equally represented in executive leadership and faculty roles, nor their contributions are fully realized. Drawing from Seneferu and Green’s work, this conceptual chapter positions Black women at the foreground of academe as essential to its survival and reimagining. Underscoring their socialization into the academy, the author discusses the disrupting presence of Black women to the Ivory Tower.
