What the paper says

This study used race consciousness and Indigeneity as a conceptual lens to examine the current state of research in the field of human resource development (HRD) pertaining to the racialization of Black, Indigenous, and other People of Color (BIPOC). The findings revealed significant disparities across HRD journals that publish this content. An analysis of 53 peer-reviewed articles also uncovered recurring themes, with leadership emerging as the most prevalent, and issues related to higher education on the rise. Numerous studies discussed HRD’s (potential) role and contribution to racial reform as well. Consequently, we suggest the problem is not the absence of research on how racialization operates within our communities and organizations, but perhaps the nominal dissemination and visibility of such scholarship within HRD graduate education. Other implications of this study exposed gaps in theory-building research and raised concerns surrounding the criticality needed to support Indigenous-informed studies within HRD.
