Capstones
The U.S. Government classifies people whose origins are from the Middle East and North Africa as racially “white.” This is reflected in the decennial census, as well as in other questionnaires and forms, even as many among those groups prefer to have their own categorization. In this feature article, we explore the history of the issue, how individuals from those backgrounds would prefer to identify, and whether their lived experiences in a post-9/11 United States reflect their current categorization.

Microaggressions, Imposter Phenomenon, And People Of Color: A Quantitative Analysis, Rukiya King
Dissertations, Theses, and Capstone Projects
Research has demonstrated the impact of racial and ethnic microaggressions on marginalized groups.

However, research on imposter phenomenon has mostly focused on perceived racism and racial identity within people of color. The current study examined the relationship between microaggressions, imposter phenomenon, and mental …
