Ascertaining the Workplace Wealth of Black Womxn Student Affairs Practitioners at Jesuit Colleges and Universities
Ford-Thomas, Manisha N.
ProQuest LLC, Ph.D. Dissertation, Saint Louis University
To better understand higher education administration practices, I investigated the perspectives of Black womxn student affairs practitioners' aspirational, social, educational, historic, navigational, resistance, and cultural capital which comprised workplace wealth. The data collection utilized a qualitative research methodology. To encourage participants to freely express their experiences, a two-part focus group was convened. The 'Sista Circle' methodology and practice served as both an informational resource and a venue for communal empowerment. The analytical framework was guided by a conglomeration of philosophic and conceptual frameworks including Afrocentricity, Black Feminist Theory, Critical Race Theory of Education, and the Community Cultural Wealth epistemologies. The gathering of stories and experiences from this study will acknowledge, honor, and enhance the collective voice of Black womxn working in Student Affairs roles at Jesuit Colleges and Universities.
