Black and Latina Girls' Compositions of Multimodal Community Journaling as Multimodal Artifactual Literacies About STEAM
This study explores Multimodal Community Journals (MCJs) as a collaborative visual storytelling, research, and community tool that empowers Black and Latina girls while fostering their engagement with Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics (STEAM). Analyzing the multimodal texts created by the Dig‐A‐Girls and their community—integrating writing, drawing, and photography—this research examines how they express their identities, ex…
A Call to Action
Black fathers and daughters are the least explored relationship within parent-child and STEM research. This article serves as an examination of the literature around their relationships and STEM learning and as a call to action. Intersectionality, as an analytic lens, examines Black fathers’ familial and STEM relationships over time and Black women’s and girls’ (BWG’s) interest and competence in STEM, as well as how systemic factors of gendered r…
A Metasynthesis of Family Literacy Scholarship
In this metasynthesis, we examined 21 highly cited qualitative studies on family literacy scholarship conducted by Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) scholars from 1981 to 2019. This metasynthesis integrates findings to present a counterstory that challenges dominant narratives in family literacy. By amplifying often overlooked or erased narratives, we highlight diverse themes including family literacy as activism, its temporal aspect…
From Black Girl Exclusion to Black Girl Empowerment
In this article, we use the framework knowledgeable agents of the digital to understand the agentic experiences of one adolescent Black girl’s digital and STEAM literacy practices. After discriminatory acts deterred Star’s interest in exploring STEAM literacy practices in school, her involvement in a digital application workshop for Black girls and their fathers and a robotics club for Black girls reshaped her understanding of herself as a leader…
Multimodal Expressions of Self
Using autoethnography to critically analyze personal and cultural experiences, we use the notion of “home” metaphorically through (a) academia—of our traumatic experiences as African American and Latinx women seeking acceptance in academic institutions despite blatant inequities, discrimination, and racism; and (b) intergenerational family and ancestral narratives—of past/present experiences and stories of identities, homes, and borders. We craft…
Whitewashed Critical Perspectives
Humanizing relationships, practices, and research
The constant dehumanization of Black fathers and boys in the media, education, politics, pop culture, and society is traumatic. Deficit perspectives and a racialized political climate often negatively portray the moral, familial, and relational practices that Black fathers and boys engage in with their family members in their homes. Using humanizing research as a framework, we found how photo-elicitation interviews (PEIs) from two separate qualit…
A Meta‐Ethnography of Family Literacy Scholarship
In this meta‐ethnography, the authors analyze the metaphors that inhabit highly cited examples of family literacy scholarship. Meta‐ethnography is a methodology, as described by Noblit and Hare, in which metaphors are analyzed as linguistic tools; in this article, they are used to compare and synthesize understandings across existing ethnographic family literacy studies. Specifically, the authors identified and translated key metaphors in highly …
Literacy scholars coming to know the people in the parks, their literacy practices and support systems
In this research, literacy scholars present the voices of the people who live in the parks near their state capital and university in a south-eastern city in the United States. Through the recorded, transcribed and analyzed conversations, we report the literacy practices of the people in the parks and their insights into the nested state and university structures that restrict and empower their quality of life opportunities. The general findings …
Counter-Storytelling vs. Deficit Thinking around African American Children and Families, Digital Literacies, Race, and the Digital Divide
The Matter of Parents’ Stories
This article uses counter-storytelling to examine how four urban African American mothers understand and discuss the role of Common Core State Standards (CCSS) in their children’s education. Counter-storytelling is used as an oppositional framework to dominant stories privileged by educational systems. Findings conclude how parents posit valid critiques about CCSS and quality teaching, but reveal the absence of spaces where their voices and persp…
Digital Participation, Agency, and Choice
This case study examines one African American adolescent male's digital choices and experiences during the creation of a digital story about Minecraft. This study introduces digital participatory choice cultures as a framework to consider how he might recognize and use existing meaning‐making and composition strategies to bridge what young people know, do, and learn both within and outside educational settings. Data include interviews, observatio…
Artifacts as Stories
An African American Mother's Stories as T.M.I
This article examines how an African American mother's affinity for digital tools relates to her telling of traumatic narratives, and how the very personal information contained in such narratives often problematizes the methodology of reporting qualitative research methods. These tensions include the concept of T.M.I. in qualitative research, as well as related ethical issues such as participant vulnerability, informed consent, and risks and ben…
