What If Black Women’s Impact in Academia Was Fully Resourced?
What if the scholars shaping policy, driving research, and mentoring the next generation of leaders had the sustained support they deserve?
The "Lasting Legacy" Campaign
The legacy of Black women in academia is under threat. As DEI funding and institutional support face unprecedented rollbacks, Cohort Sistas remains committed to sustaining the scholars and leaders our world needs.
That’s why we’re launching the “Lasting Legacy” campaign. By raising $5,000, we can:
Expand mentorship and career development programs for doctoral scholars.
Provide resources to sustain scholars in the face of funding cuts and anti-DEI policies.
Ensure that Black women scholars can pursue their research and leadership goals with confidence.
This moment calls for collective action. Now more than ever, we must ensure that those who have been historically excluded from academic leadership have the support they need — not just to survive, but to build a lasting legacy.
