Boots on the Ever-Shifting Ground: Engaging Critical Methodologies in Precarious Times

Fri, April 12, 9:35 to 11:05am, Pennsylvania Convention Center, Floor: Level 100, Room 116

Session Type: Symposium

Abstract

This session features critical qualitative and quantitative scholars who are impacted by proposed/enacted legislation and policies that restrict what can be taught and researched related to diversity, equity, and inclusion. We consider: how do reactionary politics impact critical methodologists? What are the responsibilities of faculty in doing/teaching research and/or supporting/mentoring junior faculty? How can methodology account for, respond to, or reflect the urgency of this moment? This session features critical qualitative and quantitative methodologists from Georgia, Alabama, Virginia, and Texas to discuss the implications of methodology in these precarious and politicized geographies. The goal is to open dialogue with the hope of cultivating action toward “building [methodological] spaces of emancipation, justice, and dignity” (p. 2).
