Given the current socio-political climat e in the US and on college campuses\, a number of questions have emerged r egarding the role of higher education in addressing oppression and systemi c inequities. Furthermore\, concerns about the capacity of higher educatio n institutions to engage in substantive change are among the most critical issues facing institutional leaders\, faculty\, and students. In this pre sentation\, Dr. Patton argues that efforts to address societal inequities and those situated in higher education might be best implemented by examin ing Black women’s work and contributions. In other words\, how higher educ ation moves forward toward transformation should be grounded in the model and examples demonstrated by Black women. During the presentation\, Dr. Pa tton will offer concrete examples of the strategies and efforts Black wome n have enacted toward change. Arguing the point that there has been no sub stantive societal change without the influence of Black women\, Dr. Patton will also offer an explanation regarding the seeming reluctance to acknow ledge Black women’s labor despite the benefits gained by numerous populati ons. Dr. Patton will discuss the overwhelming invisibility of Black women’ s contributions\, as well as the need for a more intersectional approach t o institutional transformation that is grounded in the traditions\, intell ect\, and work of Black women.
