Accepting Responsibility and Navigating Research Tensions: A Relational Praxis

Fri, April 9, 4:10 to 5:40pm EDT (4:10 to 5:40pm EDT), Division G, Division G - Section 5 Paper and Symposium Sessions

Session Type: Symposium

Abstract

Taking seriously Audre Lorde’s (1984) assertion that “the master’s tools will never dismantle the master’s house” (p. 110) and AERA’s call to “Reject apolitical stances that limit how our scholarship affects society” we offer a symposium on praxis. With an interdisciplinary panel of scholars, we present five papers with chair and discussant commentary examining roles of researchers as citizens and scholars who have accountability to participants and places of research as a guiding framework for critical research methodology and action. Specifically, we explore what it means to engage relationality, a centerpiece of Indigenous epistemologies, as a conceptual tool through which we operationalize truth.
