A collection of essays titled "Conditionally Accepted: Advice and Strategies for BIPOC Scholars on How to Survive, Thrive, and Resist in Academic Institutions" provides valuable insights and practical guidance for BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) scholars navigating academic institutions. The book builds upon an eponymous blog on InsideHigherEd.com, which has become a decade-old national platform for BIPOC academics in the United States. The essays in the collection offer situated knowledge about experiencing and resisting marginalization in academia, drawing on the perspectives of academics of color. They contextualize these personal narratives within existing scholarship and highlight institutional betrayals while emphasizing agency and sharing stories of survival on treacherous terrain. The topics covered in the book range from professional development to the emptiness of diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts, and redefining what it means to be an academic in our contemporary moment. By directly confronting issues of systemic exclusion, discrimination, harassment, microaggressions, tokenism, and surveillance, the book offers concrete wisdom for readers seeking to navigate and transform oppressive academic institutions. It serves as a reminder that marginalized scholars are not alone and that there are strategies and resources available to help them thrive. Overall, "Conditionally Accepted" is a must-read for anyone interested in promoting diversity and inclusion in academia and creating a more equitable and just educational system.
