This book fills important gaps in understanding the experiences and outcomes of college and the professional lives of successful Black women and the role of institutional context.Drawing on a longitudinal study of 10 Black women who entered an elite university in 1995 and graduated in 1999, it draws upon interviews from both their senior year in college and 20 years following, to explore the role of institutional context on college outcomes. Supported by data from campus administrators and publicly available data, it foregrounds new and important implications for understanding Black women’s college experiences and outcomes, the role of institutional context, Black social mobility, and Black middle-class experiences. The book delves into the personal and professional trajectories of these women, highlighting how their experiences at the university shaped their career paths and social mobility. It examines the support systems, challenges, and opportunities they encountered, providing a nuanced understanding of how institutional contexts can influence educational and professional outcomes. By integrating perspectives from campus administrators and leveraging publicly available data, the book offers a comprehensive view of the factors that contribute to the success of Black women in higher education and beyond.As such, it will be of interest to higher education, sociology, Africana studies, and women and gender studies scholars. The insights presented in this book are crucial for educators, policymakers, and researchers who aim to foster inclusive and supportive environments for Black women in academic and professional settings.

In the early 1990s, Somali refugees arrived in Minneapolis and St. Paul, Minnesota. Later in the decade, an additional influx of immigrants arrived in a second destination of Columbus, Ohio. These refugees found low-skill jobs in warehouses and food processing plants and struggled as social “outsiders,” often facing discrimination based on their religious traditions, dress, and misconceptions that they are terrorists. The immigrant youth also lacked access to quality educational opportunities.In Somalis in the Twin Cities and Columbus, Stefanie Chambers provides a cogent analysis of these refugees in Midwestern cities where new immigrant communities are growing. Her comparative study uses qualitative and quantitative data to assess the political, economic, and social variations between these urban areas. Chambers examines how culture and history influenced the incorporation of Somali immigrants in the U.S., and recommends policy changes that can advance rather than impede incorporation. Her robust investigation provides a better understanding of the reasons these refugees establish roots in these areas, as well as how these resettled immigrants struggle to thrive.

Wie komme ich dahin, dass meine Mitarbeiter, meine Team- und Abteilungsleiter, ja sogar meine Kunden und Lieferanten daran mitarbeiten, die Meetingkultur im Unternehmen nachhaltig zu verbessern? Die Antwort liefern die Autoren mit ihrem Buchprojekt. Es ist dabei kein klassisches Fachbuch entstanden. Eine Veränderung der Meetingkultur bedeutet, dass Menschen ihre lieben Gewohnheiten und Verhaltensmuster ändern müssen; das ist schwierig. Viel besser ist es, wenn die Menschen selbst den Handlungsbedarf erkennen und gleichzeitig Impulse und Unterstützung erhalten, den eigenen Weg zu finden. Hierzu braucht es, nach Ansicht der Autoren, einen fiktiven Roman, der es schafft, den Leser in die Rolle des Beobachters zu bringen. Und während er beim Lesen die Gedanken der Beteiligten verfolgt, löst dies in seinem Kopf neue Ideen und Assoziationen aus, die er dann in seine eigene berufliche Praxis übertragen kann. Die Lektüre dieses Romans coacht den Leser somit, den für sich richtigen Weg zu finden. Er wird Teil des geschilderten Veränderungsprozesses, indem er sich in die Lage des Protagonisten Frank versetzen kann, einem erfolgreichen Vertriebsleiter in einem großen mittelständischen Unternehmen. Frank ist mit zahlreichen Problemen konfrontiert: Sein Schlüsselprojekt droht zu scheitern, sein täglicher Kalender quillt immer mehr über und seine Ehe steht vor dem Aus. In seiner Verzweiflung motiviert er einige Kollegen, ihn dabei zu begleiten, seinen größten Zeitfresser in den Griff zu bekommen - seine Meetings.

We are undeniably at a point in time where the voice of the black woman will be heard, and her influence will be felt. Being a black woman is not just popular. It's powerful. From the White House to Wall Street, we've left an indelible mark--one that will never be erased. There is nothing, nothing, that a black woman can't be or do. There is no ladder that we can't climb or door that we can't open. We are everywhere and in everything. What I love about where we are and who we are in this moment is that as women, we are no longer asking for permission. We are not requesting. We are rising. We are not asking. We are ascending. We are women. We are champions. And the world knows it.
