Autor

Bryon L. Garner, a veteran studies scholar, examines the intersections of race, patriotism, and military service by introducing his Black veteranality framework. A U.S. Navy veteran, his academic work synthesizes VCT and critical race theory to analyze systemic inequities within military and veteran culture. His scholarship challenges conventional narratives of patriotism in America by centering marginalized veterans' lived experiences, revealing how institutional practices within the armed services perpetuate racial disparities despite meritocratic ideals. Dr. Garner's research informs policy discussions on veteran healthcare access and advocates for equitable recognition of diverse service members' contributions to national identity. Through an innovative blending of personal narrative and structural analysis, Dr. Garner advances the understanding of veteranality as a fluid construct shaped by race, gender, and societal perceptions of service. His work continues to reframe academic and public conversations about military service, veteran identity, and racial justice in America.
