Black Women in Doctoral Programs

My journey to my doctorate entailed racism, isolation, and despair. I also had joys and triumphs, but as I talk to other black women with doctorates, our stories resonate. I started thinking it would be great to have a collection of our stories, so I Googled it and couldn’t really find anything. I found some very interesting looking dissertations and a smattering of articles, but I was looking for an anthology and couldn’t find one.
