The contributors to Amplified Voices, Intersecting Identities:
First-Gen PhDs Navigating Institutional Power in Early Careers
overcame deeply unequal educational systems to become the first in
their families to finish college. Now, they are among the 3% of
first-generation undergraduate students to go on to graduate school
and then become faculty, in spite of structural barriers that
worked against them. These scholars write of socialization to the
professoriate through the complex lens of intersectional identities
of race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, ability and social class.
These first-generation graduate students have crafted critical
narratives of the structural obstacles within higher education that
stand in the way of brilliant scholars who are poor and
working-class, Black, Indigenous, Latinx, Asian, immigrant, queer,
white, women, or people with disabilities. They write of agency in
creating defiant networks of support, of sustaining connections to
family and communities, of their activism and advocacy on campus.
They refuse to perpetuate the myths of meritocracy that reproduce
the inequalities of higher education. In response to a research
literature and to campus programming that frames their identities
around "need", they write instead of agentive and politicized
intersectional identities as first-generation graduate students,
committed to institutional change through their research, teaching,
and service. Contributors are: Veronica R. Barrios, Candis Bond,
