Abstract
Abstract Authors in this special issue of Multicultural Learning and Teaching utilized emerging qualitative research methodology, narrative ethnography, to seek to understand and then to describe the innermost fears and joys and to hear recommendations from the diverse individuals they interviewed, observed, and formed a relationship with over time. Most are university professors and students, and one the father of a student, who depict their experiences with teachers and professors in educational contexts in the United States over time. The narratives are moving and thoroughly engross the reader in their worlds.Several individuals are twice-diverse given both ethnicity and disability or language. This added component of a second diverse aspect in their lives makes these stories particularly compelling. Narrative ethnography is a powerful authentic way to unmask the faces behind the façade and discover individuals’ personal, evolving realities, so teachers and professors can maximize student potential.
