Abstract The authors in this article share how the Asia Pacific Student Services Association was the impetus in the birth of student affairs and services and talent and development in the region. In Hong Kong, the Philippines, and most recently, in Macao, associations are creating communities of practices to assist in the work of the ever‐changing university environments and the necessity of life‐long learning and progress.

In this article, authors examine literature on the enrollment, degree attainment, and experiences of Black women graduate students. Authors use socialization to examine the failures of academia to account for Black women's intersectional identities and identify ways administrators and faculty can further support these women's success.

In this article, authors explore how and why cisheteronormativity operates within scholarship on Black collegiate women and engage critical cultural theories to suggest how student affairs scholar‐practitioners can be more intentionally inclusive in their conceptual, methodological, and programmatic choices.

No existing literature centers Black women college students (BWCS) who are targeted yet absent the discourse on anti‐black incidents at the intersection of gender. Using a 42‐case database, we highlight how BWCS are targeted with hate, discuss gender‐based racial trauma fueled by these incidents, and share recommendations for higher education.

Author overviews interdisciplinary and culturally relevant theoretical/conceptual frameworks and methodologies researchers and theorists have employed to examine Black women's experiences in higher education as students, administrators, and faculty. In conversation with literature and her lived experiences, the author offers three lessons for Black women and those seeking to employ critical frameworks and methodologies: (1) do your research; (2) play with theory and let go; and (3) align positionality, epistemology, and praxis.

Synthesizing the contributions in this issue, the authors with expertise as tenured faculty and student and academic affairs administrators offer radical, yet timely implications for practice intended to contribute to the emancipation of Black women at all levels in higher education. In so doing, these authors (re)imagine an academy that responds more judiciously to the material needs of Black women moving into the next twenty years.

Using Black feminist thought as a theoretical lens, authors explore their experiences as Black women faculty navigating the COVID‐19 pandemic amid the resurgent epidemic of racialized violence in the U.S. We conclude with implications for Black women's enactment of radical self‐care and institutional responsibility in humanizing higher education for Black women faculty.
