Join the UGA qualitative research program for the UGA QUAL Lab Speaker Series, “Humanizing Narratives: Counter-Storytelling as a Methodological Tool for Understanding Black Families’ Digital and STEAM Literacies,” presented by Tisha Lewis Ellison.
This presentation explores the use of counter-storytelling to challenge deficit-based narratives that often marginalize Black families’ experiences. By centering their voices, this methodological approach highlights the cultural wealth, strategies, and resilience embedded within their digital and STEM practices. The session will examine how counter-storytelling reveals intergenerational knowledge transfer and underscores the importance of humanizing research frameworks that honor and celebrate Black families’ contributions to digital and STEM literacies.
