We share a stage with Dr. Jasmine C. Jackson, an inspiring assistant professor from Texas Christian University. We delve into her journey, from a budding lawyer to a passionate academic, and talk about her amazing experience in research and teaching. We discuss the importance of self-discovery in research and the fascinating thought process behind her PhD research.
We then venture into the sensitive topic of being the only person of color in a department and the invisible labor often shouldered by students of color at PWIs. We share personal encounters with similar situations and how the delicate balance between responsibilities often requires giving oneself a break. Let's navigate together through these unique circumstances, understanding the strain it might cause on an advisor who is also a marginalized, historically underrepresented person.
In our concluding conversation, we explore the essence of black political knowledge and the need for a paradigm shift to recognize its value. We delve into the importance of investing in spaces where black people are socialized into American and black political culture. Dr. Jackson also enlightens us on the role of academic year and summer fellowships in preparing her for graduate school and her career. From personal stories to insightful discussions, this episode is a journey into the world of academia, research and the unwavering spirit of marginalized academics.
