Taylor, Keila2017-08-212017-08-212017-05-15http://hdl.handle.net/10315/33773Keila Taylor examines the process of conducting interviews involving non-religious black women subjects from an autobiographical perspective. I reflect on what I discovered about black women’s vulnerability, secrets, and overall (un)willingness to share their experiences surrounding a marginalized identity. This intersectional and interdisciplinary approach allows me to write from a Black feminist perspective of empathy and compassion, a perspective often considered taboo in the field of Sociology.enAuthor owns copyright, except where explicitly noted.
