“The End of Racial Justice? A Content Analysis of Racial Justice Backlash Bills” explores the impact that federal executive orders and state bills enacted since the Summer of 2020 and the “racial reckoning that forced the country and higher education organizations to interrogate how they were complicit with structural racism” have had on universities and the evolution of the regressive rhetoric surrounding the racial justice backlash. This project is one of three funded through the 2022 Pullias Center Equity Alumni Award.

Each of the three projects features an alumna or alumnus of the Pullias Center exploring a different facet of systemic racism that directly impacts Black, indigenous, people of color (BIPOC) access to education, specifically postsecondary education.
