Abstract

In this symposium, four Black women learning scientists use Black feminist-womanist storytelling as an approach for restorying the future of education. Through sharing past and present learning and teaching experiences, each researcher will interrogate dominant narratives that often marginalize Black girls and women throughout their learning trajectories. Resisting these narratives, they will draw from missing or silenced perspectives to reimagine more liberatory futures for learners at the intersection of multiple systems of oppression. Through analyzing and theorizing their stories, the discussant (another Black woman education researcher) will review overarching themes across each story to demonstrate how centering the knowledge, experiences, and practices of Black women and girls offers unique epistemologies and methodologies for transforming education.
