This paper examines some of the problems and dilemmas that African women scholars face in U.S. academic institutions: how such experiences inform the nature of their relationships with colleagues and students, and the pedagogical and resistance strategies that they practice. By reflecting on our own professional journeys as scholars of women’s studies and sociology in various academic institutions in the United States, we are particularly interested in narrating our experiences as well as some of the ways in which we challenge and navigate situations that we encounter in our classrooms.
