Nuances of Blackness in the Canadian Academy gathers highly respected scholars vested in critical race and feminist theories and critical pedagogy. Altogether, they have provided a very rich review of relevant literature on interconnected themes they have critically explored in their respective chapters. This volume will be perfect for those interested in critical race and ethnic studies, Black studies, sociology, sociology of education, multicultural education, postcolonial theory, and history. - Pierre W. Orelus, Associate Professor of Educational Studies and Teacher Preparation, Fairfield University This is undoubtedly a much-needed book in the archives of the Canadian academy. Exploring the multiplicity and complexity of the experiences of Black scholars in Canada, the authors express a common theme throughout this collection of essays - the various forms of anti-Black racism experienced by the Black scholar and the perpetual struggle against exclusion from the deeply ingrained culture of whiteness that characterizes institutions of higher learning in Canada. - Joy Mighty, Professor Emerita and Former Associate Vice-President (Teaching and Learning), Carleton University
