The Homeplace Research Collective
Dr. Travis Smith of Student Personnel in Higher Education with the COE is looking to recruit 15 Black graduate students to join the Homeplace Research Collective. The research group will be a year-long commitment and comes with a $800 total stipend. What is the Homeplace? The homeplace is safe space where black people can affirm one another and by so doing heal many of the wounds inflicted by racist domination. This space will foster love, respect, growth and development which is intended to nurture our spirits. We view this homeplace as a community of resistance. (bell hooks, 1990).
