An Exploration of the Experiences of White Counselors-in-Training of White Privilege through Photovoice

Researchers explored White counselors-in-trainings’ (CITs’) perspectives of White privilege during the Black Lives Matter movement through a qualitative participatory action research method called photovoice. Five themes emerged from the data reflecting the CITs experiences with White privilege: (a) exclusion and representation, (b) privilege, power, safety, and belonging, (c) opportunities, (d) intersectionality, and (e) education. The authors address implications of the findings for CITs, counselors, and counselor educators.
