FORMATPaperback CONDITIONBrand New Publisher Description
How can we tackle racism and sexism on our college and university campuses? What is the role of education leaders in advancing social justice? Reframing Diversity and Inclusive Leadership addresses the urgent need for more than merely performative gestures toward—and a redoubled, authentically engaged investment in—diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). Seth N. Asumah and Mechthild Nagel examine how traditional leadership models have tended to exacerbate racial and gender inequities in United States higher education and society at large. Using a cross-cultural, comparative approach indebted to critical race theory, critical whiteness studies, and Black feminism, Asumah and Nagel draw on decades of combined experience in the US and globally to provide a framework for inclusive leadership practices, actions, and policies. A valuable resource for administrators, faculty, students, and political and industry leaders, Reframing Diversity and Inclusive Leadership responds to calls for justice on campuses and beyond.

Review
"As America and the rest of the world struggle with white supremacist and autocratic leaders, higher education should be in the forefront to present models of education to combat this trend. Asumah and Nagel offer a 'blueprint for change.' We must go beyond our comfort zone and our sense of 'us' and 'them' to dismantle systemic racism and embrace models of diversity that exemplify integrity, civility, ethics, civic virtue, dependability, and trustworthiness." — from the foreword by Elizabeth Davis-Russell
