虽然有关于历史上黑人学院和大学（HBCUs）的价值的经验证据，但关于这些机构的更广泛的叙述往往过分强调挑战，并从赤字的角度描述它们。我们认为，这样的promistions elide高等教育景观内的HBCUs的好处，并植根于一种形式的制度反黑人-持久的图像和话语，构建黑色的学院和大学的机构缺乏价值。为了应对这种沉默，本研究采用了反叙事植根于一个关键的种族方法来照亮HBCU的现代贡献，告诉他们的首席执行官HBCU总裁。这些贡献包括将今天的学习者转变为明天的领导者，致力于为低收入学生提供不受经济压力影响的服务，以及挖掘在以前的学术环境中被边缘化的学生的潜力。
Although there is empirical evidence concerning the value of historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs), broader narratives about these institutions too often overemphasize challenges and depict them from a deficit perspective. We argue that such depictions elide the benefits of HBCUs within the higher education landscape and are rooted in a form of institutional anti-blackness-persistent imagery and discourse that construct Black colleges and universities as institutions devoid of value. In response to such silencing, this study employs counter-narratives rooted in a critical race methodology to illuminate the modern contributions of HBCUs as told by their chief executive officers-HBCU presidents. These contributions include transforming today's learners into tomorrow's leaders, a commitment to serving low-income students that is unencumbered by their financial strains, and tapping the potential of students who were marginalized in prior academic environments.
