In this qualitative study, the experiences of students of color at a predominantly white university in North Carolina are used to expose the ways in which white homogeneity and white normativity work to maintain hidden white privileges in various campus settings. Through the counternarratives obtained during nine focus group meetings with a total of thirty-one selfidentified students of color, these students are able to expose and describe a host of unnoticed burdens associated with being Brown and Black in white campus settings. They experience racial othering, extreme visibility, and stereotypes associated with their race and gender, and they explain ways they have devised to navigate through the university in the face of daily and routine manifestations of racism. Their voices effectively counter the ideologies of majoritarian stories that consistently deny the existence and effects of racism, to reveal some of the ways in which college life is in an unequal, racialized experience. The paper concludes by acknowledging limitations of this research as well as by discussing implications for the use of experiential knowledge through counterstories of those affected by injustice to help oppose false ideologies that work to promote racialized college experiences and outcomes.
