Abstract

The purpose of this thesis book is not to play into the historically white-male-centric hierarchical system that the collegiate institution has established for architecture. The objective of this text is to provide a critical reflection of our academies through the lens of a minority emerging architect (raised by two former practicing architects that transitioned into academia, spent eight years in school with countless leadership experiences, and nationally recognized as a scholar). Most of the white text contents herein are appropriate for scholastic study, but, I would encourage readers to follow along with the grey and bracketed text as well. Although less educationally ‘normative’, these insights provide a glimpse into what ‘real’ sentiments of marginalized groups could look like in an ever-evolving future as our discipline calibrates for inclusive, equitable, and diverse discussions. We (students like me) are tired of having our (enraged) voices pacified by complacent (white-washed) professors, administrators, and leaders. Being a bystander is not ok. If (for whatever reason) these perspectives are still too offensive for rational comprehension, then I would suggest the reader to do the following; turn your display into ‘dark-mode’ and reduce the brightness until nothing but the white texts appear. By definition, that is called visual distortion - something architectural institutions have metaphorically been comfortable doing with their social image for the past century within academia.

Schools should be concern with the process (journey) of learning rather than the ‘pretty picture’ or what reads as ‘scholastic’ to your normative white eyes.
