Annotation: In this chapter of Black Liberation in Higher Education, the authors use a focus on the Black Lives Matter (#BLM) movement to discuss racially liberating frameworks for education. #BLM has brought change to institutions by forcing changemakers to recognize and combat anti-Blackness. The material in this book is designed to assist researchers, instructors, institutional leaders, and policy-makers in supporting Black affiliates of educational institutions.
