Abstract	Higher education institutions are growing as international spaces, making it crucial to understand how international scholars are subjected to U.S. conceptions of race and racialization. Drawing from a tenet of critical race theory (CRT), storytelling and counter storytelling, this autoethnographic study presents reflections of a Korean female scholar's racialized experiences in U.S. higher education. This study explores how personal status as a foreign-born female scholar along with socio-institutional factors shape academic experiences in the U.S. Using autoethnography as a qualitative research method reveals layers of one's consciousness by connecting personal experience to culture. While presenting an amalgam of racial experiences in U.S. academia, I call for the need to address academic imperialism that is embedded in both the dominant structures of our society and in academia. I assert that CRT and AsianCrit have the potential to transform higher education and to develop a more inclusive and racially equitable space for minorities. (As Provided).
