This quantitative, non-experimental dissertation examined the factors that contribute to participation in African American activism through a cross-sectional, prediction correlation design. Building upon extant literature by addressing limitations in available research, this study investigated whether racial campus climate, institutional betrayal, and African American racial identity act as predictors of participation in African American activism by African American college students. Results of the study were that campus racial climate and African American racial identity attitudes, internalization Afrocentricity and internalization multiculturalist inclusive, served as predictors of involvement in African American activism among this population. Implications of the study are that African American students in these environments experience racism from other students and faculty; yet, these stressors are propelling students, who value their racial identity, into activism. Moreover, these students value the identities of members of other races and ethnicities.
