ABSTRACT
It is often argued that black women1 experience a ‘dual disadvantage’ in relation to education as a result of their position as women in a sexist, maledominated society and as black people in a racist, white-dominated society (Taylor, 1993, p. 438; Benokraitis and Feagin, 1986, p. 127). This chapter seeks to explore the disadvantaging faced by black women in seeking inclusion in professional and management education, and the strategies which they have adopted to overcome it.2
