This hybrid lecture and discussion program will review the results of a narrative inquiry, which asked NCAA Division I African American athletes about their stories as students and athletes at a STEM institution. The presenter will share excerpts of the stories, highlight the similarities across participant stories, lead a discussion on how to advocate for the needs of African American athletes in and out of the college classroom, and offer culturally relevant suggestions for working with African American athletes.
