Our qualitative and theoretical project was focused on 1) how the processes of surveillance, regulation, and discipline affect Black women, 2) how these processes reinforce white norms, and 3) how these processes exclude Black women from the university’s discourse of normality. While we contend that processes of surveillance, regulation, and discipline are found throughout the university structure, we focused on Black women’s relationships with these processes through their interactions with faculty. Inspired by the stories Black women students shared, we discuss and offer %K Black Feminist Thought, counterstorytelling, Foucault, higher education.
