Truth-Telling, Healing, and Resistance
This 4-year longitudinal Youth Participatory Action Research (YPAR) study employed over 300 peer-to-peer oral history interviews conducted by 112 mostly Dominican American 10th graders in Upper Manhattan and the South Bronx to examine how conjunctural crises—immigration enforcement, pandemic, and digital toxicity—impact youth from immigrant households. Building on YPAR scholarship and immigration studies, this curriculum-embedded project position…
Methodological retrospective
Colonial deposits
This article contributes to the decolonization efforts in psychological science by initiating a transnational dialogue among Black women scholars and decolonial psychologists to highlight and dissect the historical manifestations and impacts of colorism across the United States and South Africa. We define colorism as a skin tone stratification system favoring lighter skin-conceptualizing it as both a colonial tool and a psychological consequence …
We Reject the Use of Generative Artificial Intelligence for Reflexive Qualitative Research
Four hundred and nineteen experienced qualitative researchers from 32 countries invite readers of Qualitative Inquiry to consider their position on use of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) for qualitative research. We hold the position that analytic approaches such as reflexive thematic analysis are human research practices requiring a subjective, positioned, and reflexive researcher and therefore the use of GenAI in such approaches is n…
I’d Say, Transfer Schools are Revolutionary”
Encuentros
In this article, we try to capture a moment when we were relatively steady in our belief that as persons working in/through the academy, we are accountable to the temblores, to take up the project of decolonizing the curriculum, democratizing our pedagogy, and sharing the very space we occupy with those most affected by current assaults on immigrants and people of color in the United States. We still believe this, perhaps even more from our homes…
Feminist Commitments Towards a Horizontal Women, Peace, and Security Critical Learning Community
This paper features the process whereby an experimental Women, Peace, and Security (WPS) program fostered a critical learning community around peace and security across 13 countries and with 40 women. It addresses the epistemological questions of doing research in collective ways (with and among activists/scholars), the axiological challenge of recognizing and embracing counter-expertise, and the possibilities for incorporating values and practic…
“Muslims are Finally waking up”
Across the world, Muslims in non-Muslim majority countries are seen as alien humans, relegated to the margins of citizenship, permitted tenuous forms of belonging as long as they follow the “Good Muslim” script assigned to them by the majority. In the U.S., youth from Muslim American immigrant communities have awakened to, and are rejecting, this conditional citizenship. Drawing on a nation-wide qualitative study with youth from diverse Muslim im…
Movement-Based Participatory Inquiry
We write as the Survivors Justice Project (SJP), a legal/organizing/social work/research collective born in the aftermath of the 2019 passage of the New York State Domestic Violence Survivors Justice Act (DVSJA), a law that allows judges to re-sentence survivors of domestic violence currently in prison and to grant shorter terms or program alternatives to survivors upon their initial sentencing. Our work braids litigation, social research, advoca…
Dissident women's letter writing as decolonial plurilogues of relational solidarities for epistemic justice
Braiding our words, “dissi‐dance,” and desires, this article engages how various social actors, and communities—which we are a part of and belong to—challenge structural violence, oppression, inequity, and social, racial, and epistemic injustice. We thread these reflections through our written words, in subversive letters which we offer in the form of a written relational conversation among us: a plurilogue that emerges in response to our specifi…
Critical participatory action research
Building on the conceptual foundation of articles published in the 2005 volume of the Journal of Counseling Psychology on the qualitative turn in Counseling Psychology, we write to introduce and reflect on Critical Participatory Action Research (CPAR) as an intersectional approach to knowledge production by psychologists researching alongside individuals, communities, and movements dedicated to social justice. We open with a brief review of the o…
Intersectional expansiveness borne at the neuroqueer nexus
This article is crafted to unpack the methodological, epistemological, and ethical modes of inquiry embedded in a participatory, multi-method, intergenerational survey of/by/for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, asexual, and two-spirit (LGBTQIA2S+) youth from across the United States. We write alongside a racially diverse and inclusive sample of over 1,800 young people who participated in a national survey and referenced thems…
People Are Demanding Justice”
This paper examines a youth oral history project conducted by/with/for immigrant youth of color and educators. Designed as a longitudinal five year project of critical participatory action research and youth oral histories, we sought initially to document generational experiences of schooling inequity, aggressive policing, housing precarity and immigration struggles. As a research collective we then confronted and chose to interrogate how COVID19…
The public psychology for liberation training model
Written against the backdrop of the 2020 twin pandemics of a global health crisis and greater national awareness of structural racism, this article issues a call for psychology to invest in training all psychologists to respond to the social ills of racial and other forms of oppression. We introduce a public psychology for liberation (PPL) training model. Essentially, the model reflects a science, a pedagogical commitment, and practice of, by, an…

Leaking Women
Through a feminist and critical race analytic, this paper theorizes the disruptions evoked by leaky women—actually doubly leaky women—those whose nipples, peri-menopausal uterus’ and mouths have “leaked” in ways that rupture/stain/expose the white-patriarchal-capitalist enclosure of work, home and the streets and then dared to leak again by suing for justice in court. In a closing coda, I address the race/class policing dynamics between she who l…
Parental action and neoliberal education reform
Neoliberal reforms of public education have promoted a role for parents as individual consumers trying to maximize gains for their own children by choosing from a marketplace of schools. A diverse range of scholarship has explored how parents react to this imposed role, challenging neoliberal conceptions of parental choice by revealing the many factors that shape the enrollment decisions parents make and highlighting the ways that existing inequa…
Critical Participatory Action Research
We present critical participatory action research as an enactment of feminist research praxis in psychology. We discuss the key elements of critical participatory action research through the story of a single, national participatory project. The project was designed by and for LGBTQIA+ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, queer, intersex, asexual, plus) and gender-expansive youth; it was called What’s Your Issue? We provide details of the research pro…
Minority Stress, Activism, and Health in the Context of Economic Precarity
Highlights Economic precarity was associated with poorer health among LGBTQ & GNC youth. This association was partially explained by minority stress and activism. Minority stress was linked to poorer heath, but also heightened activism. Engagement in activism was associated with fewer health problems. These associations varied based on intersections of both gender and race/ethnicity
Critical Disability Studies
This epilogue is written in three voices. I reflect back, in conversation with Adrienne Asch, on the history of critical disability studies in psychology; then I thank Kathleen R. Bogart and Dana S. Dunn as I review the magnificent set of articles in the volume centering the construct ableism, and finally I write to the next generation of dis/crit scholars on how we might democratize, decolonize, and curate psychological inquiries on ableism and …
Queer solidarities
This article investigates the relationship between exposure to structural injustice, experiences of social discrimination, psychological well being, physical health, and engagement in activist solidarities for a large, racially diverse and inclusive sample of 5,860 LGBTQ/Gender Expansive youth in the United States. Through a participatory action research design and a national survey created by an intergenerational research collective, the “What’s…
Promise and Provocation
This essay reflects on the promise and challenges of community-engaged, critical participatory action research (CPAR) hinged to social policy in times of racialized state violence and massive community resistance. With cautious optimism, we argue for the potential of CPAR to facilitate more just social policy, by enhancing research validity, policy integrity, and organizing capacity. Drawing on a series of CPAR projects, we also raise a series of…
The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly
The lead author documents the promises and pitfalls of doing critical participatory action research (PAR) as a graduate student within traditional institutions. This autoethnographic essay captures the vulnerabilities of the first author as she reflects on the human work that draws her to PAR, details the tensions that surfaced in the daily practices of doing PAR with youth, and addresses unforeseen hurdles that emerged from the ethics review boa…
Promising Practices in Perilous Times
Dear Mort”
Hyphenated Selves
In the wake of the events of September 11, Muslim-American youth found that the multiple cultures within which they live were suddenly and alarmingly in conflict. The developmental consequences of living in a world fractured by religious and ethnic terror have yet to be determined for Muslim youth in the United States. This exploratory, mixed-method study begins to examine how Muslim youth negotiate their identities in these challenging times. Do…
Circuits and Consequences of Dispossession
Writing the "Wrongs" of Fieldwork
Inspired by Laurel Richardson's (1995) call for "writing stories," the authors of this essay struggle with how to produce scholarly texts drawn from narratives of over 150 poor and working-class men and women-White, African American, Latino, and Asian American. They unveil a set of knotty, emergent ethical and rhetorical dilemmas they have encountered in their attempt to write for, with, and about poor and working-class informants at a time when …
Intimate details
This article enters the 'intimate details' of a participatory action research project nested inside a college-in-prison program for women in a maximum security prison. Conceived out of a conversation of prison reform advocates, the piece is deliberately not co-authored by all of the researchers - prison based and university based - because this article is an opportunity to reveal some of the delicate and difficult issues of working inside institu…
Disability Beyond Stigma
This article critiques the assumptions about the nature and meaning of disability advanced in social‐psychological writing, suggests the origins of these assumptions, and proposes a return to a Lewinian/minority‐group analysis of the situation of people with disabilities. It concludes by placing the articles in this issue of the Journal of Social Issues in context and by presenting questions in need of further exploration

Anything Can Happen With Police Around”
In order to document urban youth experiences of adults in positions of public authority, including police, educators, social workers and guards, a broad based street survey of 911 New York City‐based urban youth was conducted in which youth, stratified by race, ethnicity, gender and borough, were asked about their experiences with, attitudes toward, and trust of adult surveillance in communities and in schools. In‐depth telephone interviews were …
Exploring dual identification among Muslim‐American emerging adults
This mixed methods study explored dual identification among Muslim-American emerging adults of immigrant origin. A closer look was taken at the relationship between American and Muslim identifications and how this relationship was influenced by experiences of discrimination, acculturative and religious practices, and whether it varied by gender. Data were gathered from 97 Muslim Americans (ages 18-25) who completed a survey and produced identity …
Troubling calls for evidence
Writing in the spirit of feminist psychologists who have historically refused to narrow the gaze of our craft, I want to cast a critical eye on popular calls for ‘evidence-based practice’ and more specifically research epistemologies funded to produce such evidence. Surrounded by sprawling debris reflecting the gendered, raced, classed and sexualized collateral damage of economic and political crisis, I find it most peculiar that psychologists ha…
(In) Secure Times
This article documents a moment in history when poor and working-class white boys and men are struggling in their schools, communities, and workplaces against the 'Other' as a means of framing identities. Drawing on two independent qualitative studies, the authors investigate distinct locations where poor and working-class boys and men invent, relate to, and distance from marginalized groups in an effort to create self. First the authors look at …
Reflections on a Feminist Psychology of Women
The articles published in Psychology of Women Quarterly provide both testimony to the progress made by feminist psychologists and an opportunity for critical self reflection on this literature. This paper reports an analysis of the methods and conclusions of articles published in Psychology of Women Quarterly from 1978 through 1981. The analysis was undertaken to document what has been accomplished by the psychology of women literature, to identi…

Just methods in revolting times
This article takes up the challenge of critical methods in "revolting times," as we conduct qualitative research on (in)justice festering within repulsive inequality gaps, and yet surrounded by the thrill of radical social movements dotting the globe. I introduce a call for "critical bifocality," a term coined by Lois Weis and myself, to argue for research designs that interrogate how history, structures, and lives shape, reveal, and refract the …

Minority stress was linked to poorer heath, but also heightened activism. Engagement in activism was associated with fewer health problems. These associations varied based on intersections of both gender and race/ethnicity

In this article, we consider the ways in which educational policies and institutions today enable or obstruct young people who are immigrant English-language learners as they seek to cross cultural and educational borders. Contrasting a class action suit in California protesting high stakes testing that will significantly limit graduation rates, and an ethnographic analysis of the international high schools in which immigrant youth engage with cu…

Mapping as a Method
Billig (2008) Billig, M. 2008. The hidden roots of critical psychology: understanding the impact of Locke, Shaftesbury and Reid, London: Sage. [Crossref] , [Google Scholar] argues “some of the ideas in today's critical psychology have a longer history than is often supposed” (p. 195). We begin with that premise by excavating the theoretical history of psychological mapping methods in social psychology (including, but not limited to, place/space m…
Contesting Privilege with Critical Participatory Action Research
The construct of privilege has been undertheorized in the field of psychology. The discipline more commonly examines those who have been disenfranchised, marginalized, and discriminated against. However, psychologists concerned with social issues must also attend to questions of power and privilege. This article uses a collaborative research project with New York City youth and adults called Polling for Justice to engage in a discussion about pri…
The Stories We Tell
Research addressing the lives and friendships of older Black lesbians is virtually nonexistent. Using narrative analysis, we chronicle the lives of two older Black lesbians (73 and 85 years of age) through the lens of positive marginality. The concept of positive marginality asserts that living both inside and outside of the mainstream produces strengths rather than helplessness ( Mayo, 1982 ). We use four conceptual frames of reference to explor…
Racial Self‐Identification
Dark and Clark's pioneering study in 1947 demonstrated that Black children were ambivalent about racial self‐identification. Subsequent research indicates that during the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s, Black children were increasingly likely to demonstrate a commitment to identifying with a Black stimulus. The present study investigates the extent to which this trend persists in the 1980s and how gender of the child affects her/his racial identification…
Working With Embroideries and Counter-Maps
As people around the world continue to have their voices, desires, and movements restricted, and their pasts and futures told on their behalf, we are interested in the critical project of decolonizing, which involves contesting dominant narratives and hegemonic representations. Ignacio Martín - Baró called these the “collective lies” told about people and politics. This essay reflects within and across two sites of injustice, located in Israel/Pa…
A Wrinkle in Time
Community self‐surveys, popularized by Margot Haas Wormser and Claire Selltiz in the 1950s, brought together diverse community groups to examine racial injustice in their local contexts. A precursor to contemporary participatory action research, the self survey method provides evidence of SPSSI 's long history of “engaged scholarship.” In this article, we resurrect this history and connect it to contemporary research in critical psychology that s…
Class Notes
In this epilogue, we offer a theoretical mapping of notions that have emerged across the articles in this issue of the Journal of Social Issues specifically dedicated to questions of social class. Social class is often included within the “race, class, gender, and sexual orientation” mantra of feminist and critical race work in psychology, but rarely scrutinized with rigor or serious scholarship. Thus, for the purposes of this epilogue, we theori…
Educating beyond the Borders of Schooling
In our recent interviews with 154 poor and working-class young adults, male and female, across racial and ethnic groups, we hear whispers of hope amid the narratives of despair. In both jersey City and Buffalo, we have wandered through communities that have been ravaged by deindustrialization and a withering of the public sphere. Here we turn our attention to what Boyte and Evans call 'free spaces'-those spaces in which hope is nourished in spite…

Albert Thomas
It is only recently that historians have begun to probe the complexities of the technological changes which occurred in France after the first world war.1 For the most part, such studies have focused on the motivations and objectives of those industrial leaders who called for the greater acceptance of the techniques of Frederick W. Taylor and Henry Ford by a traditional, conservative business community. More than just a simple matter of economic …

Disabled Women
The position of the disabled woman in current U.S. society deserves political, theoretical and empirical attention. In this paper we have delineated the economic, social and psychological constraints which place her at a distinct disadvantage, relative to disabled men and nondisabled women. We evaluate the ways in which having a disability is viewed as an impediment to traditional or nontraditional sex role development. The construct rolelessness…

Why Urban Adolescents Drop into and out of Public High School
Statistics on school experiences of dropouts provide one sort of picture of the problem. In this article Michelle Fine provides another. Using ethnographic techniques, she describes through the eyes and words of actual dropouts the factors that led them to leave school.
Qualitative and quantitative methods
The use of qualitative measures in a quantitative framework results in a reasonable likelihood of triangulation; in contrast, the independent conduct of qualitative and quantitative evaluations is a greater challenge for triangulation, but it also holds promise for greater discovery.

Sexuality, Schooling, and Adolescent Females
Michelle Fine argues that the anti-sex rhetoric surrounding sex education and school-based health clinics does little to enhance the development of sexual responsibility and subjectivity in adolescents. Despite substantial evidence on the success of both school-based health clinics and access to sexuality information, the majority of public schools do not sanction or provide such information. As a result, female students, particularly low-income …

The Politics of Research and Activism
This article reflects on the troubles wrought by individualistic academic research and presents more fully a vision for feminist activist research on the institutionalization of violence against women. I explore what research might look like if constructed by activist-researchers and encourage academic researchers to collaborate with and for social movements concerned with violence against women

The Public” in Public Schools
The question posed in this paper is: How do public schools, which are supposed to be universally accessible moral communities, engage in patterns of systematic exclusion? Through three case studies of public secondary schools, in each of which issues of exclusion of groups of students have arisen, this analysis pierces educational ideologies of “merit,” “choice,” and “tradition” as they have justified moral exclusion from public education
