“…Le fait d’être noir, comme les participant.e.s, a pu faire en sorte que ceux‐ci aient été plus à l'aise pour faire part de leurs perspectives et raconter leurs histoires. Par ailleurs, être afro‐canadien ne signifie pas pour autant que l'on comprenne le contexte spécifique des enjeux et du vécu quotidien des participant.e.s noirs de la Nouvelle‐Écosse (Jean‐Pierre & Collins, 2022 ). Étant donné que des populations noires ont été exploitées historiquement à des fins de recherches scientifiques, certains participant.e.s peuvent parfois éprouver une certaine méfiance à l’égard des chercheurs universitaires (Goddard‐Durant et al., 2021 ).…”

“…Étant donné que des populations noires ont été exploitées historiquement à des fins de recherches scientifiques, certains participant.e.s peuvent parfois éprouver une certaine méfiance à l’égard des chercheurs universitaires (Goddard‐Durant et al., 2021 ). De plus, il est important de reconnaître que l'affiliation à une université confère à la personne qui dirige l'entretien des pouvoirs et des privilèges qui peuvent parfois créer une distance avec certains participant.e.s dont les parcours d’études postsecondaires et les parcours professionnels peuvent être fort différents (Hamilton, 2020 ; Jean‐Pierre & Collins, 2022 ). Par conséquent, tout au cours de l’étude, l'autrice était consciente de l'importance de la réflexivité et de la création d'un rapport de confiance avec les participant.e.s.…”

Recently, there is increasing awareness of the magnitude of anti-Black racism. As a consequence, several school administrations reiterated their commitment to foster an inclusive school climate and to challenge discrimination, including anti-Black racism. Critical hope is a theoretical concept that is considered essential to accomplish in-depth transformations to fight social injustices. Duncan-Andrade (2009) distinguishes three elements that produce critical hope in school settings: material hope, Socratic hope, and audacious hope. This article draws from data collected during a bilingual qualitative study conducted with African Canadians in Nova Scotia, including immigrants and African Nova-Scotians. The analysis of semi-structured interviews and focus groups conducted with 60 participants revealed the role of critical hope within critical pedagogy frameworks, including an anti-racist approach, to promote the development of concrete actions and critical consciousness among school personnel, while avoiding false hopes, cynicism, discouragement, or fatalism.

This critical qualitative inquiry employed a Disability Critical Race Studies Counter-Narrative framework (DCCN) to explore the contrast between educator and Black student understandings of the special education placement process and their implications. Interviews with 21 members of school personnel and 20 Black students between the ages of 14 and 18 were cross-referenced to narratively reconstruct the special education placement process in Quebec, Canada. Analysis of the results reveals a striking gap between educator and student understandings of the process, which can be linked to adverse student experiences. Subsequently, implications for enhancing educators’ knowledge of diverse learners and professional practices are discussed.

Since the tragic death of George Floyd in May 2020, there has been increased interest in anti-racist research. Consequently, several scholars are instigating qualitative inquiries in Black communities with limited preparation or expertise. This article presents a reflection regarding essential principles that can guide general and afro-emancipatory health and social sciences qualitative inquiries in Black diasporas. We contend that it is essential that researchers engage in reflexivity and consider Black ontologies, axiology and epistemologies. Furthermore, we propose the application of the following deontological principles to fulfil an ethical afro-emancipatory research framework: (a) include critical theories, (b) target the liberation of Afro-descendant peoples to enable their full participation as their whole selves in society; (c) ensure their leadership and meaningful involvement throughout the research process; (d) implement accountability mechanisms towards community members; (e) embrace intersectionality, an asset-based lens, and aspirational stance and; (f) foster healing, growth and joy.
