Black resident assistants' experiences are shaped by race and racism. Previous research highlights the unique challenges that Black RAs encounter, such as isolation and hypervisibility, racial stereotypes, and unfair treatment from white supervisors.

We center the voice of Dwyan Moore, a Black 12-year-old boy, during his transition of being diagnosed with a learning dis/Ability. We do so to grapple with the problem of disproportionate representation in special education along race and dis/Ability, with particular attention to educational leadership. Disproportionate representation is a…

Students minoritised because of their race and/or ethnicity have a different university experience from their peers, which is reflected in degree completion statistics, awarding gaps, and graduate outcomes.
