    God Consciousness Enacted: Living, Moving, and Having my Being in Him
    (Washington State University, 2015) Cannon, Mercedes A.; Morton, Crystal H.
    Spirituality, historically and contemporarily, has played a crucial role in African American women's navigation of the academy. Drawing on Cozart's (2010) conceptualization of spirituality as God consciousness, this article provides a personal account of an African American graduate student's journey towards her doctoral degree at a predominately white institution. According to Cozart (2010), God consciousness guides one in her interactions within her community and the decisions one makes within those spaces. The authors share how God consciousness provides a lens to perceive, understand, and overcome challenges African American women face in the academy.
