Frenemies In The Academy: Relational Aggression Among African American Women Academicians, Wendi S. Williams, Catherine Lynne Packer-Williams

The Qualitative Report

Black women academicians represent a highly educated group that at times hold positional power within institutions of higher education.

Using auto-narrative qualitative methodology, they collected data through scholarly personal narratives in the form of journals.

The authors consider the contribution of individual, institutional and structural elements.
