Writing Our Future in a Time of Erasure: Black Scholarship, Leadership & Resistance

As book bans rise, DEI initiatives are dismantled, and entire fields of study face political attack, the fight to preserve Black scholarship is a fight for historical truth, academic integrity, and institutional transformation. Anti-woke rhetoric seeks to erase our contributions and silence our stories, but this book stands as a testament to why we must write, cite, and publish our own narratives.

Black Women’s Pathways to Executive Academic Leadership: Lessons from Lived Experiences by Dr. Crystal Chambers is more than a leadership guide—it is an act of resistance. With over half of college presidents preparing to step down in the next five years, the transition of power in academia will shape the future of higher education. This book makes it clear: Black women must be at the table, driving change, breaking barriers, and ensuring that the next generation of institutions are more just, inclusive, and representative.
