Abstract
This chapter will explore, question, and critique linguistic diversity, in general, and English, specifically, concerning lived Black experiences. The authors recognize linguistic diversity as acknowledging and accepting the many language varieties people hold and bring with them in the spaces they enter. By understanding this concept, they aim to provide a deeper perspective into how Black male educators in higher education face challenges regarding linguistic diversity. The experiences are often overshadowed by linguistic hegemony that is rooted in white supremacy, so they aim to provide a deeper understanding of the experiences of Black male educators to promote linguistic liberation. This chapter will explore the experiences of both Black male professionals and illuminate the challenges and opportunities faced in relation to linguistic diversity from their personal narratives. They aim to share the importance and value of creating Black space within whiteness to share linguistic backgrounds and stories.
