Abstract: Although research has explored the experiences of Black and Latina students with racial microaggressions, there is a gap in the literature regarding the unique experiences of AfroLatinas in higher education. In response, this qualitative study examined the impact of intragroup racial microaggressions on nine AfroLatina graduate students at historically white institutions. Using Critical Race Theory and Critical Race Feminism as frameworks, as well as counterstorytelling, this study also explored the impact of the experiences on their sense of belonging within the Black and Latine communities. Data show that the microaggressions they experienced, which were influenced by anti-Blackness and stereotypical notions of Latinidad, resulted in self-doubt, loneliness, and a decreased sense of belonging. Implications for practice and recommendations for future research are provided.
