Life and Leadership Coach
I am a doctoral candidate in Leadership Studies at University of San Diego. I am trying to recruit female participants for a qualitative study that will explore whether a dialogic approach can help create the conditions for the construction of a new language for the hybrid identity that is currently labeled black and white, mixed race, and/or biracial.This study will explore in depth the lived experiences of women who have one black and one white parent, and compose a collective narrative about they describe themselves and their processes for constructing identity, as well as how their individual histories intersect within this new discourse.
Participants will be asked to complete a reflection questionnaire, participate in two group dialogues (each two hours long), and participate in one personal interview with the researcher. The dialogues will be held in San Diego, so participants should live within San Diego County or neighboring counties.
To participate in my study, you must meet the following criteria:
- Be female and 30 years of age or over.
- Have one black and one white parent that the participant identifies as such.
- Self-identify as black and white, biracial, mixed, mulatto, or other.
- Be born and raised in the United States.
- Be willing and cooperative to share and discuss your lived experiences with others during two live onsite scheduled group dialogues in December and January.
If you (or someone you know) qualify for this study, please email me to set up a time to interview. My email address is roxannekymaani@gmail.com.
Thank you in advance for any assistance you provide.
