Entrenched White Supremacy in Nursing Education Administrative Structures
Despite support for diversity initiatives, nursing academia lacks faculty of color in leadership. This study examines if institutional racism or internalized racism creates barriers to diversifying nursing faculty leadership.
Area of Science:
- Nursing Education
- Academic Leadership
- Diversity and Inclusion
Background:
- Professional nursing organizations support diversifying nursing faculty, including leadership roles.
- A significant gap exists between stated support and the actual representation of faculty of color in higher academic leadership positions.
- This disparity highlights a critical issue within nursing academia's leadership pipeline.
Discussion:
- Explores the root causes for the underrepresentation of faculty of color in nursing leadership.
- Investigates whether historical institutional racism or internalized racism contributes to this lack of diversity.
- Examines how white supremacy culture perpetuates barriers to equitable leadership opportunities in nursing academia.
Key Insights:
- Nursing academia faces persistent challenges in diversifying faculty leadership.
- Both systemic (institutional racism) and individual (internalized racism) factors may impede progress.
- The persistence of white supremacy culture is identified as a significant obstacle.
Outlook:
- Calls for a critical examination of existing structures and practices within nursing academia.
