60.074 - (Re)membering Methodologies From the Margins: Engaging Memory Work in Educational Research

Sun, April 19, 8:15 to 9:45am, Swissotel, Floor: Event Centre First Level, Zurich G

Session Type: Symposium

Abstract

Drawing from its roots in working class, indigenous, and women of color feminisms and queer studies, each paper contributes to innovating what Haug (1987/1999) has termed ‘collective memory work’, an epistemological practice and qualitative methodology, in order to: 1) explore the erasure of difference in memory-work and possibilities in its recovery, 2) queer ethnography through collectivizing and analyzing three researchers’ experiences with the same text, 3) explore and disrupt institutional borders through the analysis of everyday experiences of imperialist language practices in two divergent multilingual educational spaces, 4) use memory to investigate our bodies’ reactions to and receptivity to data in qualitative research, and 5) queer and decolonize traditional notions of reciprocity and research roles in qualitative research.
