“…This latter aspect reveals a much deeper thread about CSOC’s racialized experience in space. Leaning on Alderman’s (2018) construction of the biopolitics of mobility, where CSOC, in their racialized identities, have to navigate and experience a range of tokenization and hyper-surveillance to invisibilization and marginalization. While this remains in strong alignment with the existing scholarship (e.g., Anthym & Tuitt, 2019; Briscoe, 2021), the remote working conditions also provided a reprieve.…”

While higher education has continued to adjust to COVID-19, which has included moving to virtual platforms and supporting students’ mental health, what is absent from these conversations is the campus staff enacting the rapidly changing university context. These professionals in academic and student affairs, residential life staff, and advising staff have had to readjust roles, responsibilities, and programs, all while facing ambiguous threats of budget cuts and struggling with their own wellness. Through a qualitative study at a midwestern university using Critical Race Theory, this study focuses on both the pandemic as well as the endemic concerns of racism Staff of Color experience at their higher education institutions. Findings reveal disconnects between university values and communication with the (lack of) financial prioritization and care. While many seek a return to the pre-COVID-19 campus, the strategies, execution, and prioritization of staff hold much longer ramifications regarding campus retention, inclusion, and equity.

“…There has been important work on mobilities done by tourism and travel studies scholars into the inherent racialization of tourism and travel (Alderman, 2018; Celeste, 2016; Lee and Scott, 2017) and particularly into how Black Americans, in particular, navigate this racialized tourist landscape (Carter, 2008; Finney and Potter, 2018). Work by scholars of the automobile have begun to interrogate the racialization of personal travel (Alderman et al, 2019).…”

Toward an expanded approach on Black mobilities

Mobilities scholars have shown how injustices may arise from forced movement or stillness. However, with notable exceptions, these studies tend to collapse analyses of race into a simplistic binary of immobility as an inherent characteristic of non-white people and the possibility of movement as only granted to white people. In this article, I call for an expanded approach that is inclusive of both the controlling forces of white supremacy and life-affirming resistance against and despite these constraints. Drawing from Black studies and Black Geographies, I argue for a more unified Black mobilities research agenda.
