This book explores the meanings, experiences, and challenges faced by Black women
faculty that are either on the tenure track or have earned tenure. The authors advance
the notion of comparative intersectionality to tease through the contextual peculiarities
and commonalities that define their identities as Black women and their experiences
with tenure and promotion across the two geographical spaces. By so doing, it works
through a comparative treatment of existing social (in)equalities, educational (dis)parities,
and (in)justices in the promotion and retention of Black women academics. Such interpretative
examinations offer important insights into how Black women's subjugated knowledge
and experiences continue to be suppressed within mainstream structures of power and
how they are negotiated across contexts
