Black Woman, Ivory Tower Book Review

October 16 @ 5:30 pm - 7:30 pm

Join us for an enlightening discussion on Dr. Jasmine Harris’s groundbreaking book, Black Woman, Ivory Tower. In this powerful work, Dr. Harris provides a raw and revealing look at the challenges Black women face in academia, shedding light on the systemic barriers and unspoken realities of navigating spaces not designed for them. Drawing from her personal experiences, Dr. Harris explores themes of identity, resilience, and belonging, examining how structural inequalities and racial and gendered expectations shape the academic journeys of women of color. Her book challenges traditional narratives, calling for institutions to become more inclusive and equitable. Through critical reflections and analysis, Dr. Harris emphasizes the importance of representation, mentorship, and solidarity, offering strategies for survival and success in often-hostile environments. Black Woman, Ivory Tower is a call to action for anyone who has felt marginalized, and it offers hope for creating spaces where diversity is celebrated. Don’t miss this chance to dive into a thoughtful discussion on resistance, empowerment, and change in academia.

This is a FREE event but registration is required.
