PARTICIPATORY ACTION RESEARCH AND PHOTOVOICE was
used to examine 20 Black students' perceptions of campus
racial climate within residential learning communities.
Using a qualitative constructivist case study, we examined
Black students' inventories of individual and community
assets, as juxtaposed to challenges, within residential
domiciles at two predominantly White institutions. For
the purpose of this study, photovoice was used to allow
participants to accomplish the following: (a) analyze Black
student community strengths and limitations; (b) facilitate
relevant discourse and understandings about community
concerns via group conversations and photographs; and
(c) provide a forum for the presentation of students'
experiential knowledge through their ontological language
and images (Wang, 1999; Wiersma, 2011). Template data
analysis was used to code data, and finding "our" space(s),
absent while present, and perpetual homelessness emerged
as identified individual and community strengths for
navigation of the campus racial climate. Findings from this
study inform residential housing administrators, advisers
and staff about how Black student residents perceive and
respond to residential climates on PWI campuses.

Several scholars
have studied how
campus racial
climate shapes the
lived experiences
of students of
color who attend
predominantly
white institutions
(PWIs) and have
found endemic
systemic racism
to the benefits of
Whites and the
detriment of Black
and Latinx students

Several scholars have studied how campus racial climate shapes the
lived experiences of students of color who attend predominantly
white institutions (PWIs) and have found endemic systemic racism
to the benefits of Whites and the detriment of Black and Latinx students attending college (Ancis, Sedlacek & Mohr, 2000; Cabrera,
2014; Davis & Harris, 2016; Feagin, 1992; Feagin & Sikes, 1995;
Guess, 2006; Gusa, 2010; Hurtado et al., 1999). However, this also
has holistic adverse effects1. For instance, Black students attending
PWIs endure harmful racial microaggressions as a form of racism,
cultural isolation, avoidance and a lack of belongingness that have

attending college.

The use of the term, "Latinx", is a way to disrupt the masculine-centric "Latino" and the
gender inclusive but binary term, "Latina"(see Scharrón-del Río and Aja, 2016)
