The authors have not considered a traditional executive summary for
this book so that readers will read and absorb the entire the book
to capture the essence, content and scope of this timely
publication. Their experience has been that, too often, college
students limit their reading of material about race to synopses
versus synergies of information. The primary purpose of this
holistic handbook is to provide guiding prescriptive principles
toward institutionalization of policies and practices that foster
global diversity and local inclusion in institutions of higher
learning in the aftermath of the unsettling and disturbing racial
incidents in the Deep South following the re-election President
Barack H. Obama. Ironically, President Obama was criticised in 2013
for the lack leadership diversity (especially women) among his
cabinet and senior staff. In any event, this handbook has been
conceptualized based on the individual, collective and culminating
Southern "cotton to" experiences of the five authors from both
predominantly/historically White institutions of higher learning
(PWIs) and predominately/historically Black institutions of higher
learning (HBCUs). Both institutional communities can use this book
to create campus climate and culture for global diversity and local
inclusion. The handbook encompasses seven chapters, seven
conceptual frameworks in a logic model, and seven steps for
campus-community collaboration. The book also highlights three
dimensional "circular" themes and threads from spirituality in the
preface and the initial chapter from several faiths and religions
to introduce and symbolize spiritually different yet "commonly"
denominating doctrines from around the world. We believe these
themes and threads represent the "Commonwealth of intellectual
intersections" in modern academe, driven by diverse intellectual
capital and inclusive cerebral currency. This book was written to
encourage systemic, holistic and systematic inputs, operations,
outputs, outcomes and impacts that yield returns on investment
(ROI) from campus-wide implementation of global diversity and local
inclusion efforts.
