Reviews
"Women in academia still face obstacles built up over centuries, but the contributors to Presumed Incompetent have taken a leap toward liberation. Their revelations will enrage you--and open minds and hearts." --Gloria Steinem "All my academic friends--white and black, gay and straight, minority and majority--are putting up images of the book on their Facebook page. They don't say much except "I'm ordering mine" but the proliferation of this cryptic message is enough: indicating a tectonic shift. . . I'm glad there is a book out there that can tell it like it is--a book that can do the talking for those who have to remain silent. Only in this way, with one party speaking to the other, can we begin a useful dialog. I hope everybody sticks Presumed Incompetent's image on their Facebook page. . . It will make the world a much, much better place." --Khan Ho, The Huffington Post, " . . . a masterpiece of frank conversation, convincing discussion, accessible prose, and courage. . . At times heartbreaking, at times hopeful, and always powerful, Presumed Incompetent is a must-read for academics, for those whose friends and loved ones are scholars, and for students of social justice anywhere." --Kate Aizpuru, Harvard Journal of Law and Gender, "Should be required reading for students entering graduate studies. . . Highly recommended." --R. Price, Choice Magazine- March 2013 Editors Pick " . . . a must-read for every faculty and administrator who is committed to meaningfully 'diversifying the faculty.' There is a long way to go to achieving that goal in a way that is grounded in social justice and real transformation; Presumed Incompetent can play a significant role in helping us get there." --John M. Ostrove, Ps ychology of Women Quarterly, "Women in academia still face obstacles built up over centuries, but the contributors to Presumed Incompetent have taken a leap toward liberation.

The editors of this magnificent collection attest to the power of storytelling and add to the testimonios of women in academia such as Telling to Live and Paths to Discovery. Each and every one of the authors survived and in telling their stories they offer hope and solace for young women scholars entering the academy." —Norma E. Cantú "Exploding the myth that we live in a "post-identity" world, Presumed Incompetent provides gripping first-hand accounts of the ways in which women faculty of color are subjected to stereotypes, fears and fantasies based on the intersection of race, gender, and class. It reminds us that the mere passage of time is not enough to create equitable workplaces for anyone facing institutional subordination." —Kimberlé Crenshaw, "This book felt so painfully familiar I almost could not read it. Those of us who started our careers as firsts and onlys have had to forget much about the cruelty hidden in academic enclaves. Forgetting, a means of surviving, buries pain and erases history, leaving us morally and intellectually flimsy. Thanks to these women for taking the harder path of truth-telling." -Mari Matsuda, author of Where is Your Body: Essays on Race, Gender, and the Law "This book is a courageous and significant contribution not just to gender and education studies, but towards a rethink of what the academia should be." -Sin Yee Koh, Lo ndon School of Economics Review of Books, "Should be required reading for students entering graduate studies. . . Highly recommended." -R. Price, Duquesne University, Choice Magazine- March 2013 Editors Pick, "Exploding the myth that we live in a "post-identity" world, Presumed Incompetent provides gripping first-hand accounts of the ways in which women faculty of color are subjected to stereotypes, fears and fantasies based on the intersection of race, gender, and class.

Synopsis
Presumed Incompetent is a pathbreaking account of the intersecting roles of race, gender, and class in the working lives of women faculty of color. Through personal narratives and qualitative empirical studies, more than 40 authors expose the daunting challenges faced by academic women of color as they navigate the often hostile terrain of higher education, including hiring, promotion, tenure, and relations with students, colleagues, and administrators. The narratives are filled with wit, wisdom, and concrete recommendations, and provide a window into the struggles of professional women in a racially stratified but increasingly multicultural America.
