In the Aftermath of a Racialized Incident: Exploring International Students of Color's Perceptions of Campus Racial Climate
Yao, Christina W.; Briscoe, Kaleb L.; Rutt, Jennifer N.
Journal of Diversity in Higher Education, v14 n3 p386-397 Sep 2021
The purpose of this study is to illuminate international students of Color's experiences with a campus racial incident at a predominately White institution (PWI). This study emerged after the release of a YouTube video from a self-proclaimed White supremacist at the participants' institution, who made comments such as "I am the most active white nationalist in [the state]." In this study, we seek to answer the question: How does a campus racialized incident affect international students of Color's experience and perceptions of the campus climate at a PWI? The experiences of this population must be considered, especially due to the rise in incidents on campuses that are related to race, racism, and nativism. Findings from this study include how participants made sense of the incident from personal, institutional, national, and transnational perspectives. Participants share their concerns with discrimination and campus safety, confusion about free speech and institutional responses, and communication with family back home. Implications for practice include how institutions can provide support to international students of color, who have intersecting identities related to race, ethnicity, language, and religion, as they navigate campus racialized incidents in the United States.
