American racism and sexism continue to plague institutions of higher education. According to scholars (Corbin et al., 2018; Green et al., 2018; Hamilton, 2016; Howard-Vital, 1989), Black female undergraduate students experience isolation, marginalization, racism, sexism, elitism, and other injustices throughout their collegiate journey. There is limited literature related to the experiences of Black female graduate and professional students. Specifically, there is very little empirical research about the unique experiences of Black female law students. Research on underrepresented student populations in legal education primarily focuses on minority students or female students. Specifically, the research concentrates on pipeline programs, student enrollment, and bar passage. Predominantly White law school environments are especially notable for being inhospitable and unfriendly, especially for Black women. Many institutions of higher education and law schools specifically manage to enroll only token numbers of Black women. The small numbers are compounded by the marginalization of these students based on their lack of privilege on the law school campus (Deo, 2013). The purpose of this qualitative study is to explore and understand the lived experiences of Black female law students who study at a predominantly White institution. The study will focus on how they perceive the campus climate and the availability of institutional support. Also, of interest in this study is how racism and sexism intersect to create a particularly unique experience for Black female law students. The study seeks to capture the essence of their collective experience while championing their heterogeneous experiences. The research design revolves around Black feminist epistemology, critical race theory (CRT), critical race feminism (CRF), and a narrative inquiry methodology, which will draw upon methodological practices from critical feminism and CRT. Specifically, capturing lived experiences through counternarratives that challenge the master narrative constructed in legal education.
