Paper doi abstract bibtex This chapter thoroughly explores the intricacies of Mills’s theorization of the racial contract and his conceptualization of epistemologies of ignorance in order to better understand the concept of white racial ignorance and how it can be applied to research and practice in higher education and student affairs. Moreover, the relationship between white racial ignorance and systemic racism and white supremacy is symbiotic in that racist structures are necessary to maintain a society rooted in an epistemology of ignorance, and this inverted epistemology simultaneously allows for the maintenance of racist structures. Lastly, white racial ignorance functions as the mechanism that allows white students to participate in a historical amnesia, which becomes particularly important as practitioners attempt to apply student development research and theory to their work with students. Through the institutional epistemology of ignorance, white-serving institutions might advance the idea that change can happen by ensuring that institutions uphold their promises to hire more Faculty of Color. © 2022 Taylor & Francis Group.
