Passport to Possibilities: Black Experiences in Global Engagement 

Passport to Possibilities: Black Experiences in Global Engagement brings together reflections from thirteen Black contributors across the globe, including Black students, faculty, staff, educators, and professionals based in the United States, Canada, Germany, and South Africa, offering powerful insights into what it means to be Black and abroad. Through research, storytelling, and critical reflection, the book centers Black experiences in global education, challenging long-standing assumptions about who participates in international learning and why it matters. Each chapter presents a deeply personal narrative that explores the intersections of race, identity, belonging, access, and mobility within global contexts. Collectively, the contributors reveal both the challenges and transformative potential of international engagement, framing global learning as a pathway to personal empowerment and social justice. The book calls for a reimagined global education field—one where Black voices, leadership, and lived experiences are essential to creating more inclusive, equitable, and transformative forms of global mobility.
