Abstract
Reemphasis of collaborative approaches in anthropological research has required theoretical approaches that can facilitate more equitable and impactful scholarship. The authors suggest that considering the influence of the researcher (reflexivity) and critically examining interlocking, interactive social positions (intersectionality) can be valuable tools, particularly for the process of becoming ethnographers. Reflexivity and intersectionality offer insights into how and why students can have divergent ethnographic experiences despite living in the same community and receiving similar training. In this paper, the authors share personal narratives that reflect on and discuss our social (re)positioning in studying experiences of race and racism among African Americans in Tallahassee, Florida.
