Abstract:
|
Social identities are internally structured and valued-based on whiteness, symbolizing privilege in higher education. Not all white academic advisors engage with the identities of Black students understanding the relative effect of oppression, racism, and discrimination which shape the advising experience. When systematic racism is unveiled and the unconscious personification of the American racial order is exposed, white academic advisors employ a defensiveness and resistance to engage in difficult dialogue. This conference workshop aims to discuss the multiple dimensions of privilege positions in higher education, using an anti-racist framework (Privilege Exploration Identity Model). Participants will apply the model using a case study to explore the stages of PIE while dismantling the normalized behaviors embedded in social identities. |
