Supporting Contingent Women of Color Faculty Initiative

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to share an upcoming event and research project funded by the FSU Anti-Racism Grant Program.

The “Unmasking Gendered Racialization in Online Teaching: Support for Contingent Women of Color Faculty at UMass Boston” initiative focuses on online classrooms, its broader purpose is to support all contingent faculty at UMass Boston—including graduate teaching assistants—especially those who identify as women of color. Whether you identify as a contingent woman of color faculty member at UMass Boston or not, you are cordially invited to participate.

Please sign up to join a conversation with Dr. Detra Price-Dennis on June 18th at 1 p.m. ET. Dr. Price-Dennis is a leading scholar in racial literacy in digital classrooms and the president-elect of the National Council of Teachers of English. You can register for the event using this registration link.

Please also click here to participate in an online survey where you can share your story as contingent women of color faculty at UMass Boston. Participants will receive gift cards for completing the survey and/or participating in the focus group.

Please see the attached flyer for full details and registration links.

For questions, please reach out to the grant recipient to Minh Nguyen at nghia.nguyen@umb.edu.
