Chapter 6: “La Puerta”: Methodological Doorways: From Arts-Based Inquiry to Transgenerational Insight

Through transgenerational story stitching, I explored the relationship between four multiracial educators’ racial consciousness and their intercultural curriculum. This unique participant group personifies the hybrid third space or theoretical interstice where culture is fluid and transformative. Through the incorporation of cultural collaging, collaborative graffiti mapping, poetic representation and ancestor dialogue, I regarded artistic forms of story-sharing to reimagine contexts and relationships across the time-space continuum. Findings from this inquiry illustrated the utility of transgenerational insights as they specifically relate to the field of education.
