Power, Race, and Higher Education Kakali Bhattacharya

Power, Race, and Higher Education is a parallel narrative written by two scholars. Kakali Bhattacharya, who is a South Asian woman who immigrated to the United States and Kent Gillen who is a White man and who focuses on completing his doctoral studies under Kakali's supervision. Embedded in the dilemmas are implications for cross-cultural qualitative research, understanding of how whiteness functions, and how we attend to our deepest wounds as we work to become allies and build bridges.
