Abstract | African American women hold a unique position as members of two groups that have been treated in a peripheral manner by postsecondary education (Moses, 1989). Membership in both marginalized groups often makes African American women invisible in colleges and universities. Given the complex intersection of race and gender, more attention should be paid to the educational, social, and political positions of African American women in postsecondary education. This chapter examines the historical legacy of exclusion and the struggle for inclusion by African Americans in higher education and addresses the impact of race and sex on educational participation. Furthermore, the central aim of this chapter is to consider which types of postsecondary institutions appear to afford African American women a sense of agency in meeting their educational needs.
