Black Feminist Interludes
An experiment in co-mentorship, wherein group members share strategies for navigating university life as black faculty, rather than replicating hierarchical models. A hopeful project, the conversations and meetings reorient workload from intensely individualistic toward more capacious mentor-work, that attends to collective solidarities, co-learning, and co-operation. This model, ideally, will also unfold with new outcomes; that is, the model is designed to unsettle typical academic infrastructures by refusing to replicate, inside and outside the group, top-down power dynamics.
