Using a narrative methodological approach, we centered the stories of 35 Black student affairs educators across various institutions to identify the strategies they used to practice self-care in the midst of racial battle fatigue, including unplugging from the people and places that caused them harm, building community with other Black educators, caring for their bodies, finding safe spaces, and using counseling. We offer implications for practice for Black student affairs educators and those working to support them in navigating racial battle fatigue.application/pdfenCreative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 Internationalstudent affairs servicesracism in educationAfrican American women in higher educationArticlehttps://journals.shareok.org/jcscore/article/view/89/59
