The Experiences of Black and Minority Ethnic Academics

Focusing on the underrepresentation of Black and minority ethnic (BME) academics in higher education, this comparative study examines their experiences in the UK and the USA. It delves into themes of inequality, identity, and the challenges faced by BME scholars, particularly at senior levels and in post-1992 universities. By highlighting these issues, the book aims to shed light on the systemic barriers and cultural dynamics that affect BME academics in the academic landscape.
