Today we are joined by Nombasa Mbatyoti, a recent Masters Psychology graduate. We will be discussing her master’s thesis, “Black female first-generation students’ lived experiences at an historically white South African university.” Nombasa will briefly explain the rationale and methodology of her thesis before providing an important context to South African higher education. Then, we will take a deep dive into some of her findings concerning specific lived experiences related to gender and race marginalisation, and how these are compounded when intersecting with their first-generation status. Finally, we ask Nombasa about the implications of her research. If you are left wanting more, you will find a link to Nombasa’s thesis in the show notes.
