Applying Critical Race Theory to Group Model Building Methods to Address Community Violence
Participants found these methods useful for advancing difficult discussion. The resulting diagrams can be tested and expanded in future research, and will form the foundation for collaborative identification of solutions to build community resilience. GMB is a promising strategy that community partnerships should consider when addressing complex health issues; our experience adapting methods based on CRT is promising in its acceptability and earl…
“Our commonality is our past
BACKGROUND: Re-entry community health workers (CHWs) are individuals who connect diverse community residents at risk for chronic health issues such as Hepatitis C virus and cardiovascular disease with post-prison healthcare and re-entry services. While the utilization of CHWs has been documented in other marginalized populations, there is little knowledge surrounding the work of re-entry CHWs with individuals released from incarceration. Specific…
Examining Benefits of Academic–Community Research Team Training
Partnership development measures that capture both academic and community perspectives demonstrate reliability and validity. Multidimensional latent constructs for inclusion in CER development models included partnership agency, personal knowledge and capacities, and benefits of collaborative research partnerships over time. We discuss the utility of findings to future CER training design and study
Does Practice Make Perfect? A Randomized Control Trial of Behavioral Rehearsal on Suicide Prevention Gatekeeper Skills
Agency and Expression Despite Repression
Same-sex sexual practices are illegal in Ethiopia; consequently, little is known about Ethiopian lesbians. We explored the lives of five Ethiopian lesbians in order to understand their sexuality from their perspectives. We were particularly interested in how they perceived their sexual identities and practices, the obstacles they faced, and how they coped with such obstacles. Three major themes emerged from their responses to a semi-structured qu…
Identity Transformation and Reintegration Among Ethiopian Women War Veterans
Ethiopian women in the Tigray People's Liberation Front developed a collective identity during the civil war, including androgynous attitudes and behavior that defied traditional gender norms. After the war, they were demobilized and left on their own to re-adjust to civilian life. Interviews with 20 such women veterans suggest that all were integrated into society economically, and to some degree socially, but political integration was minimal. …
What Makes a Distinguished Black Psychologist? An Empirical Analysis of Eminence
The present study is a qualitative analysis of the autobiographical narratives and contributions of 34 psychologists who have received the Association of Black Psychologists' (ABPsi) Distinguished Psychologist Award. The award is one example of how ABPsi engages in activities that sustain its unique Afrocentric collective identity, activities referred to in the social movement literature as "identity work." Although distinguished Black psychologi…
African Americans Doing Feminism
An Introduction and Warm Invitation
Emotions and Redefining Black Masculinity
Using an intersectional analysis of Black masculinities, we explored how 2 African American men's personal emotions regarding violence against women and their perceptions of masculinity became politicized by experiences that led to their participation in the founding of 2 separate profeminist men's organizations. Through the public use of their personal narratives, the men used organizational activities to foster new raced-gendered feeling rules …
It Takes a Village to Raise a Researcher
The "narrative revolution" in psychology emphasizes that individuals are storytellers and that narratives can provide rich data about people's identities and the meanings given to life-altering experiences. The "griot" or storyteller is revered among people of African descent, thus, narrative interviewing can be a culturally appealing method for gathering the life stories of African Americans in identity research. However, narrative interviewing …
Justice by Any Means Necessary
Through an analysis of news reports and documentary footage on the Gulabi Gang and ethnographic reports on the Mahila Aghadi, both of India, we illustrate how women who engage in violent forms of justice-seeking require us to expand social psychological concepts of retributive and restorative models of justice, women's agency, and community organizing. Our grassroots feminist analysis in an Indian context integrates: (1) feminist definitions of p…
Social Support and Self-Reported Health Status of Older Adults in the United States
Objectives. We determined whether a representative national probability sample of US community-dwelling older adults who reported less social support also reported poorer general health status, which is a robust predictor of prospective mortality among elders. Methods. We analyzed 2 subsamples generated via random sampling with replacement from the full analytic sample of adults aged 60 years and older in the 1999–2002 National Health and Nutriti…

African American Feminist Masculinities
This descriptive study focuses on the qualitative meanings of feminist Black men’s lives, gleaned from narrative patterns inherent in their life stories. The intent of the study was to understand how each man evolved a feminist masculinity and his ability to change. Turning points were categorized as redemption (a positive experience following a negative experience), peak (a positive experience following another positive experience), or contamina…
You've got a friend
Twenty African American men's cross-sex feminist friendships were studied using the self-expansion model of close personal relationships. Narrative analyses supported the self-expansion model by revealing how feminist insider perspectives shaped men's constructions of masculinity and their interactions with women. Specifically, two themes emerged from the men's narratives concerning the advantages of these friendships, namely their affirmative qu…
Racial and Gender Attitudes as Predictors of Feminist Activism Among Self-Identified African American Feminists
This study explored the racial and gender attitudes and feminist activism of 100 self-identified African American feminists (50 women and 50 men) to determine (a) whether Black feminists possess weak racial identities due to feminist influences stereotypically associated with White American culture, (b) if Black feminist men share similar gender attitudes, beliefs, and feminist activism levels with Black feminist women, and (c) whether racial and…
African American Feminist Fathers' Narratives of Parenting
This study investigated father involvement among African American feminist fathers. Five interrelated parenting themes emerged from a narrative analysis of individual semistructured interviews that each father deemed important: (a) nurturance and emotional intimacy with children, (b) politically conscious parenting, (c) nonviolent discipline, (d) supportive social arrangements, and (e) open attitudes concerning who can parent a child. Each man's …

Talking Feminist, Talking Black1
During the highly publicized appeals trial of Mike Tyson, Black feminists launched an antirape campaign that included obtaining signatures in support of a full-page ad while simultaneously educating the Black community about racist and sexist rape myths. Organizers challenged rape-supportive discourse using a distinct Black feminist frame that was influenced by structural as well as culturally engendered factors. Relevant frame alignment processe…
A Black Feminist Model of Rape Myth Acceptance
A Black feminist model was used to investigate rape myth acceptance between African American antirape activists and a comparison group of nonactivists using Cross's (1991) racial identity model and Downing and Roush's (1985) feminist identity model. As predicted, activists rejected rape myths more than nonactivists; the earlier stages of both models were associated with rape myth acceptance; the later stages were associated with rape myth rejecti…
An African-Centered, Black Feminist Approach to Understanding Attitudes That Counter Social Dominance
We used an African-centered model of male-female equality, Black feminist theory, racial identity theory, and findings from the rape myth acceptance literature to explore male dominant and White racial dominant attitudes among antirape activists and a comparison group of nonactivists. As predicted, activists and sexually nonaggressive men rejected rape myths and possessed more egalitarian attitudes toward women than did nonactivists and sexually …

The Themes Concerning Blacks (TCB) Projective Technique as a Measure of Racial Identity
The usefulness of the Themes Concerning Blacks (TCB) as a measure of racial identification was explored among African American, African Dutch, and African Surinamese samples. Generally, most of the characters on the TCB cards were perceived by all three groups in ways parallel to the objective description of the cards, the highest number of recorded themes was given to the same cards by all groups, the emotional tone of most of the stories was mo…
