The speakers in this series have been nominated by their peers for being inclusive leaders. Each event is scheduled for an hour. In the first 10-15 minutes, the speaker will discuss an action they have taken to increase diversity and/or inclusion. The remaining time will be for discussion.  The intended audience is anyone committed to enriching the lives of women in masculinized cultures. I encourage you not to think of leadership with a capital “L”- leadership can be big things, but it is also found in “small” everyday behaviors.

• • Instructors of Color and Teval Bias: Teaching Anti-Racist Content at Predominantly White Universities: The discussion will unpack the double bind instructors of color face when charged with teaching anti-racist content in required general education classes at predominantly white universities. We will cover the documented bias instructors of color face in teaching evaluations when their anti-racist pedagogy is presumed to be a biased opinion devoid of academic validity. We will also discuss strategies for navigating this double bind in the classroom and at the institutional policy level.
