Abstract

Black Storytellers and Everyday Liberation addresses the question, “How do Black folx cultivate everyday practices of liberation?” This article details the inception of an ethnographic Black Storytelling research project between 2021 and 2022 that centers the lived experiences of 18 people around the United States. The participants, including myself, collectively explore how various institutions have shaped individual and family identities. As an outcome of this work, I provide analysis that disrupts institutional anti-Black racism (specifically naming schools) and identify ways that we can heal and affirm ourselves through everyday practices. I conclude with a data excerpt in the form of poetic transcription.
