Abstract
Fifteen years ago, William F. Tate (1994) authored a paper titled, From Inner City to Ivory Tower: Does My Voice Matter in the Academy? Building on the work of critical race scholars (Delgado, 1989, 1990; Williams, 1991), and reflecting on his own early schooling and later experiences as a professor in the academy, Tate echoed the call for voice scholarship as one way to explain the experiences of minority scholars.
