“…Other television series, such as ''The A-Team,'' ''Leverage,'' and ''Mad Men,'' also impart hero status to the con artist (who Hyde, 1998, p. 11, called America's best candidate for the updated trickster role). Modern communication scholars have recognized the trickster spirit manifested in Louis Farrakhan when he organized and spoke at the Million Man March (Arthos, 2001) and in the 1975 novel, The Woman Warrior, by feminist author Maxine Hong Kingston (as cited in Cai, 2008).…”

“…We were inspired by the works of anthropologists and feminist scholars who have processed challenging life experiences in very public and visible ways while experimenting with different narrative registers, literary forms, and shape‐shifting “trickster”‐like positionalities (see for instance, Behar 1996 ; Cai 2008 ; Cox 2015 ; Nye and Hamdy 2017 ; Rosaldo 2013 ; Sandoval 2000 ). The disruption of our taken‐for‐granted fieldwork practices by COVID‐19 offers a chance to reflect on what we want the future of fieldwork to be.…”

This article introduces the feminist praxis of duoethnography as a way to examine the COVID era. As a group of diverse, junior, midcareer, and senior feminist scholars, we developed a methodology to critically reflect on our positions in our institutions and social worlds. As a method, duoethnography emphasizes the dialogical intimacy that can form through anthropological work. While autoethnography draws on individual daily lives to make sense of sociopolitical dynamics, duoethnography emphasizes the relational character of research across people and practices. Taking the relational aspects of knowledge production seriously, we conceptualized this praxis as a transformative method for facilitating radical empathy, mobilizing our collective voice, and merging together our partial truths. As collective authors, interviewers, and interlocutors of this article, the anonymity of duoethnography allows us to vocalize details of the experience of living through COVID‐19 that we could not have safely spoken about publicly or on our own.
