Dr. Nimisha Barton is a Lecturer at Cal State Long Beach and a Consultant in higher education. Drawing on a decade of experience as a college educator, a university administrator, and a DEI practitioner, she works closely with organizational leaders to develop anti-bias programs, trainings, and curricula for faculty audiences. She is the author of several award-winning books, edited volumes, and articles. Her most recent book, entitled A Just Future: Getting From Diversity and Inclusion to Equity and Justice in Higher Education, appeared in 2024 with Cornell University Press. It explores the early radical potential of diversity, equity, and inclusion programs in educational institutions and encourages educators to once again pursue educational freedom through abolitionist practices. She has also written on the subject of DEI in higher education for various publications including Inside Higher Ed, Independent School Magazine, Diverse: Issues in Higher Education, and About Campus. In 2022, Dr. Barton received the prestigious Tyler Stovall Mission Prize in recognition of her contributions to DEI in the historical profession as well as in the field of higher education, more broadly. She completed her PhD in history at Princeton and a dual BA at UC Berkeley.
