Teaching note demonstrates how critical methodology engages with anti-racism and feminist theory in research design courses, suggesting new insights.
In this teaching note, I show how teaching with Rebecca Hall’s (2021) Wake: The Hidden History of Women-Led Slave Revolts subverts what undergraduate research design classes can do, showing how critical methodology courses – contrary to their reputation as scientistic exercises surveying a pre-packaged list of methods – are an especially apt place to teach about anti-racism, feminist theory, resistance, and social power.
