Counterpaces of Critical Reflection Theory (CCRT)
This theory integrates critical race theory (Delgado & Stefancic, 2017). Standpoint theory
(Harding, 1993), and social constructivism (Vygotsky, 1978), to examine how Black women in
higher education create and use counter spaces as sites for critical reflection and knowledge
creation. These spaces which include student organizations, cultural centers, and mentorship
networks such as Wise Woman Webinars, serve as both emotional sanctuaries and intellectual
arenas where Black women can challenge dominant narratives, reflect on their experiences, and redefine success on their own terms.

TELL US YOUR STORY IN 100-WORDS OR LESS:
Example: I am a non-traditional student, married, raising my grandchildren, and pursuing my degree to fulfill a life-long dream. There are times I feel quite lonely on this campus as there are very few people who look like me. Wise Women webinars allow me to stay in touch with Black women around the world who are also pursuing their dreams in an atmosphere that was not designed with them in mind.
Thank you, WWW.
