Research, Race and an Epistemology of Emancipation.
Tyson, Cynthia
Mid-Western Educational Researcher, v16 n1 p2-5 Win 2003
Moving race from the margins of research paradigms entails a deconstruction of "Whiteness" as the norm against which all "others" are measured. Researchers must stop hiding behind scientific neutrality and being indifferent to how findings are used. To engage in emancipatory research, we must engage in the process of researching for the greater good of our communities. (Contains 27 references.) (TD)
