Sharing Race, the Personal, and the Political from Multiple Social Locations at an HBCU
Gubrium, Aline C.; Mazhani, Tjazha
Qualitative Inquiry, v15 n3 p448-466 2009
Aline Gubrium, a young White woman teaching Introduction To Comparative Women's Studies at a historically Black women's college, and Tjazha Mazhani, a young Black woman who has taken Gubrium's course, enact a play--about their multiple positions and perspectives (in terms of race/ethnicity, gender, age, and rank) in the pedagogical process of teaching about forms of power and oppression. Black feminist Audre Lorde's work, which was taught and read in the course, resonates throughout, providing both direction and inspiration for the developing dialogue. (Contains 3 notes.)
