Freire in a Changing World: Critical Autoethnography Meets Freire
This article presents critical autoethnography as a socially just way of conducting research in marginalized, vulnerable communities. Combining autoethnography, ethnography, and critical pedagogy, the researcher becomes a participant/collaborator in the study, turning inward to examine the Self and the complexities of cultural perspectives through the lens of critical pedagogy. Through intense reflexivity and introspection, the researcher can exa…
Reconciling Two Selves in the Same Body 1
While participating in an institute with other critical pedagogues, the author became aware of her two Selves: the U.S. English-speaking Self and the Spanish-speaking Self. With startling clarity, she realized why people had been telling her that she exhibits totally different personalities based on the language she is speaking. More surprisingly, she realized that her epistemologies and ontologies were diametrically opposed depending on the domi…
Re-Telling Our Stories: Critical Autoethnographic Narratives
This book presents the collaborative work of two professors, one in Mexico and the other in the United States, and their respective students, participants in a Ph.D. course called â Critical Autoethnography.â The chapters emerged from virtual conversations as doctoral students and professors examined the intersections between critical pedagogy and autoethnography. They problematized the cultural and theoretical intersections between the participa…
Justice! Ay! Ay! Ayotzinapa: A Challenge for New Critical Qualitative Inquiry
Border Crossing: (Auto)Ethnography that Transcends Immigration/Imagination
In this autoethnography, I share a snapshot from a research trip I took with my husband Dan to Mexico in 2006 seeking stories from the “other side.” I wanted to talk to the families of the Mexican women I had worked with in my own US city for the past seven years to find out the effect the women's emigration had on the transnational families who remained on the other side of the border. I heard many stories from the Mexican families, and I also e…
The Coal Miner's Daughter Gets a PhD
Using poetry, the author examines the journey that carried her from a coal mining family in a small town in West Virginia to an assistant professorship at a Research I university. Through performance autoethnography, she explores the influences that led to her perception of herself as an outsider in the academic community. She also considers how her background inspires her to establish relationships and conduct research in Latino communities. She…
Public Tragedy Collides With Personal Trauma
When the massacre of 32 students plus the suicide of the shooter occurred at Virginia Tech on April 16, 2007, this author watched the external events from the relative safety of her office located directly across the Drillfield from Norris Hall, where the shootings occurred. Subsequently, the author fell into a deep state of depression following the day now known as 4/16. Throughout the numbness of the day, the author scribbled poems on post-it n…
Service-Learning: Taking Language Learning into the Real World
At the AATSP Annual Conference in Chicago in 2003, several service-learning practi tioners congregated following the last of several service-learning sessions. As they shared experiences, frustrations, ideas, goals, and excitement, the idea emerged to plan a workshop for Acapulco in 2004. The entire process was an organic outgrowth resulting from deep communication among the group of people who continued the dialogue throughout the year. By means…
