Black Doctoral Women “Walkin’ on Eggshells”: Gendered Racial Microaggressions in Agricultural and Life Science Departments

Black women, gendered racial microaggressions, critical race theory, agricultural sciences, graduate education, higher educationAbstract
This study examines Black doctoral women’s experiences with gendered racial microaggressions in agricultural science departments at Historically White Institutions. Gendered racial microaggressions are subtle everyday expressions of oppression due to one’s race and gender, and have been used to subordinate Black women in society. Further, they have been linked to increased psychological distress, increased depressive symptoms, and lowered self-esteem. This study uses Critical Race Theory and Critical Race Feminism as theoretical lenses and critical narrative inquiry as methodology. Findings show that Black women experienced assumptions in communication style and beauty, the Angry Black Woman stereotype, and silencing and marginalization to avoid gendered racial microaggressions. Participants’ coping strategies, study implications, and directions for future research are discussed.
