以前的研究已经确定了影响黑人女性性别种族认同发展的背景因素。关于黑人女性性别种族认同发展的具体过程以及黑人女性赋予她们性别种族认同的意义，人们知之甚少。在目前的研究中，我们试图确定这一过程的各个阶段，以及黑人女性在身份发展过程中认可的性别种族意识形态的类型。借助交叉性和黑人女权主义理论，我们分析了这些数据，以将这些发现集中在黑人女性经历的独特社会文化背景下。在东南一所以白人为主的大型公立大学，共有19名黑人女性参加了关于她们性别种族认同发展的半结构化个人访谈。运用建构主义扎根理论指导我们的数据分析，我们发现黑人女性的发展过程有四个阶段(超意识、反思、拒绝和导航)，每个阶段都受到黑人女性交叉性经历特有的各种因素的影响。我们还发现了六种性别种族意识形态(同化、人文主义、挑衅、力量、骄傲和赋权)，它们代表了黑人女性对其性别种族身份的价值观、信仰和态度。我们发现，黑人妇女利用她们性别种族认同的一些方面来保护自己免受性别种族主义和跨部门压迫的影响。研究人员、实践者、教育者和政策制定者可以利用这个概念框架来提高他们对黑人女性性别种族认同发展的复杂性的批判性意识。
Previous research has identified contextual factors that influence gendered racial identity development among Black women. Less is known about the specific process of Black women’s gendered racial identity development and the meaning Black women ascribe to their gendered racial identity. In the current study, we sought to identify phases of this process and the types of gendered racial ideologies that Black women endorse during their identity development. Drawing on intersectionality and Black feminist theory, we analyzed the data to center these findings within the unique sociocultural context of Black women’s experiences. A total of 19 Black women at a large, predominantly White Southeastern public university participated in semi-structured individual interviews about their gendered racial identity development. Using constructivist grounded theory to guide our data analysis, we found four phases of the developmental process (hyperawareness, reflection, rejection, and navigation), each of which was influenced by various factors unique to Black women’s intersectional experiences. We also found six gendered racial ideologies (assimilation, humanist, defiance, strength, pride, and empowerment), which represent Black women’s values, beliefs, and attitudes toward their gendered racial identity. We found that Black women utilized aspects of their gendered racial identity in ways to protect themselves from gendered racism and intersectional oppression. Researchers, practitioners, educators, and policy makers can utilize this conceptual framework to increase their critical awareness of the complexity of Black women’s gendered racial identity development.
