<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Critical race theory (CRT) was introduced in 1995 and for almost twenty years, the theory has been used as a tool to examine People of Color's experiences with racism in higher education. In this monograph, we review the critical race literature with a focus on race and racism's continued role and presence in higher education, including: legal studies and history, methodology and student development theory, the use of storytelling and counterstories, and the types of and research on microaggressions. Our goal is to illuminate CRT as a theoretical framework, analytical tool, and research methodology in higher education. As part of critical race theory, scholars and educators are called upon to extend their commitment to social justice and to the eradication of racism and other forms of oppression. This work will be of interest to researchers and educators, as well as practitioners working with students. --Back cover.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Critical race theory (CRT) was introduced in 1995 and for almost twenty years, the theory has been used as a tool to examine People of Color's experiences with racism in higher education.
