Description: Argues that plantation life, its racialized inequities, and the ongoing struggle against them are embedded in not only the physical structures but also the everyday workings of higher education.
Review Quotes:
"...Plantation Politics and Campus Rebellions is notable in that it signals one of the first extended meditations on antiblackness in higher education in its collection of writings and engagements across disciplinary type. Further, what this text makes most crucially clear in its investment in mapping the power relations of plantation is an invitation to center the actions of Black people directly--often painfully absent in scholarship that attends anti-black racism. And for that reason alone, the text deserves more than credit." -- Professor Educator Advance
"This collection of essays is a timely and vital contribution to the examination of race in higher education. These are hard-hitting essays from an extraordinary slate of contributors." -- Ms. Magazine
