Hello,
I am searching for volunteers to participate in my research into 'The
Feminisation and Embodiment of Black Diaspora Cultures'. I am looking for
Black women willing to be interviewed individually and/or in a group. I am
particularly looking for the following categories of women:
+Social workers (and allied social care workers)
+school teachers.
+Ragga/dancehall music fans
+Women who attended the Queen Afua workshops which were held in London a
year or so ago
+Women who read guides or participate in any self-development workshops
specifically aimed at Black women(E.g Iyanla Vanzant's books etc)
+Young Black women aged between 18 and 25.
These are some of the questions that this research aims to investigate
"X What does being a Black woman mean to different women?
"X How do Black women take care of ourselves and get taken care of?
"X What different views do Black women have about how we are portrayed in
the media ¡V music, TV, movies etc?
"X What are the diverse ways in which Black women use clothes, hair,
make-up, fashion, etc to enhance personal and social status?
"X What problems and benefits are there in being a Black woman in different
situations ¡V e.g. in the family, relationships, in worship, or in leisure?
If you are interested in participating in this research please contact
