Hi Kaye,

I'm late to this discussion (and missed the previous responses), so I
apologize if I'm reiterating anything or not addressing something more
specific. But I think Black feminist autoethnography is truly glorious and
powerful. Maybe these articles will help:

   - Boylorn, Robin M. “Blackgirl Blogs, Auto/ethnography, and Crunk
   Feminism.” Liminalities: A Journal of Performance Studies 9.2 (2013):
   73-82. Print.


   - Griffin, Rachel Alicia. “I Am an Angry Black Woman: Black Feminist
   Autoethnography, Voice, and Resistance.” Women’s Studies in Communication
   35.2 (2012): 138-157. Humanities Full Text (H.W. Wilson). Web. 6 May 2016.


   - Spry, Tami. “Performing Autoethnography: An Embodied Methodological
   Praxis.” Qualitative Inquiry 7.6 (2001): 706-732. Print.

Best,

KL
