The Business of Diversity: Validating the Hidden Narratives of Black Women Earning a Business Degree
Margaret Bailey
ProQuest LLC, Ph.D. Dissertation, Oklahoma State University
This study explores the intricate narratives and experiences of Black women navigating the landscape of post-secondary business education. Drawing from Black feminist theory, this research aims to shed light on the nuanced challenges and triumphs faced by Black women within the confines of business education. Employing qualitative methods, narratives from Black female business students across diverse educational institutions were collected and analyzed. The findings highlight the complex interplay between identity, curriculum, and lived experiences, illuminating the ways in which these women negotiate and resist marginalization within the business school environment. Themes of identity formation, intersectionality, curriculum inclusivity, and the impact on professional trajectories emerge, highlighting the need for more inclusive and culturally responsive pedagogies. Ultimately, this study advocates for a reconceptualization of business education to embrace diversity, equity, and inclusivity, offering insights to enrich educational practices and foster supportive environments for Black women pursuing business degrees.
