Until Every Woman Is Free: Equity and Belonging in the Academy Through Duoethnography

In this volume, women in academia use autoethnographic methods to document and unpack their experiences as women of color in the academy. Many higher education institutions have made public-facing, explicit commitments to diversifying and retaining faculty of color, yet research continues to document how, even under these changes, the experiences of faculty—especially women—of color have changed minimally, if at all. Through the use of duoethnography and other autoethnographic methods, this edited collection highlights the voices of women of color in academia from a range of university settings, developmental career stages, and professional trajectories, providing a space for women of color to process their own experiences navigating, surviving, and thriving in white male-dominated academia. The contributors featured in this volume offer important insights into how institutions of higher education could better support women of color professors.
