Almost all of the women's scholarship is cutting edge research on people of color and some is on women of color. SisterMentors' women fill critical gaps in current literature produced by scholars in the academy.

Here's a sample of the range of diversity of scholarship being done by women in SisterMentors:

• Eva Abat is a doctoral candidate in Clinical Psychology at Pacifica Graduate Institute in California. Her dissertation is on women's erotic connection to their bodies. This eroticism enables women to respond to the world from a position of power. Click here for more.
  
  
• Faedra Chatard Carpenter is a doctoral candidate in Drama and Directing at Stanford University.
