“…Though beyond the scope of this paper, art education could be informed by close study of Black feminism and how it informs Hip Hop pedagogy. Developing curriculum related to Black feminism could be a step toward changing the historical erasure of Black women from the field of art education (Acuff 2018).…”

This paper argues that Hip Hop Pedagogy is a version of Culturally Sustaining Pedagogy and should be a part of art education. Further, we believe that when exploring Hip Hop Pedagogy, teachers need to reference the work of Black female and non-binary artists. After an overview of Hip Hop Pedagogy and Culturally Sustaining Pedagogy, we argue that these approaches should be a consistent part of art education. Through the work of contemporary visual artist and DJ, Rozeal, we offer suggestions for art educators about how they might transition their practice to embrace some aspects of Hip Hop Pedagogy. Specifically, through sampling and the distinction of cultural appreciation versus appropriation, we believe that art educators can change their practice to make their teaching more relevant to their students and to contemporary culture.

“…Because the purpose of this article is to model an approach to developing a literature synthesis in an alternative, arts-based format, I include a portion of the play as an illustrative example. The excerpt begins at a point where the inner circle players are discussing the value associated to skin color centered on notions of images, stereotypes or controlling images (Acuff, 2018;Collins, 1990) to reveal how "whiteness is more than a skin's surface," as stated by the HOST. I chose this excerpt because it includes every voice actively participating and contributing to the dialogue or data.…”

“…JONI It was. In referencing Ann Holt (2017) in my article on Black Feminist Theory (Acuff, 2018) she critically commented on the way archives are (making segment gestures with hands) appraised, collected, arranged, processed, organized, and preserved. She argued that archival practices can be exclusionary, as processes of selection are always subjective and value laden (p. 208).…”

Storytelling, a tenet of Critical Race Theory, offers a distinct approach for researchers engaging in narrative inquiry. This article models a fiction as research approach for creating a literature synthesis as a pedagogical strategy for teacher educators and pre-service teachers. The white palette refers to a painting palette, a blank slate or canvas, often considered neutral ground. Whiteness, however, is not neutral and this one-act conversation centers on examining whiteness as it impacts my role as a white teacher educator. The production, players, and script developed out of salient literature inclusive of Critical Race Theory, Art Education, and Critical Whiteness Studies. I am both author and a participant in this story. In this capacity, I disclose the impacts of the literature on my white teacher educator identity and reveal how I created arts-based data artifacts to evidence the overall story.

“…P-ISSN 2580-3808, E-ISSN 2580 Discrimination based on race, gender and class will not end if there is no strong ideology for existence of black women. This is where black feminism has an important role to challenge bad image of black women (Acuff, 2018;Benard, 2016;Collins, 2009;Taylor, 2016). These bad images are designed so that forms of social injustice appear natural, normal, unavoidable in everyday life (Collins, 1996(Collins, , 2009.…”

Hidden Figures is a film based on the true story of three African American women who help NASA in the space race. The three African American women are Katherine G. Johnson, Mary Jackson, and Dorothy Vaughan. With the setting of the 1960s era, these three women are fighting against a climate of segregation (separation based on race or skin color) in their work environment (NASA). This study aims to explore Patricia Hill Collins’ theory of black feminism and to integrate it with Stella Ting-Toomey’s theory of face-negotiation. This research is based on a critical paradigm and uses a qualitative approach. Using Sara Mills’s critical discourse analysis as a data analysis technique, this study found a representation of black feminism in the film Hidden Figures. The discrimination experienced by the characters is in the form of racism, sexism, and classism. However, the resistance carried out by the characters is through self definition, not in safe spaces as mentioned by Collins. The characters also do not avoid conflict, but use a negotiation approach with a compromising style to achieve a win-win solution.Keywords: Black feminism, face-negotiation, racism, sexism, classism ABSTRAKHidden Figures adalah film yang diangkat berdasarkan kisah nyata tiga perempuan Afro-Amerika yang membantu NASA dalam space race. Ketiga perempuan Afro-Amerika itu adalah Katherine G. Johnson, Mary Jackson, dan Dorothy Vaughan. Dengan setting waktu era 1960-an, ketiga perempuan ini berjuang melawan iklim segregasi (pemisahan berdasarkan pada ras atau warna kulit) di lingkungan kerja mereka (NASA). Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendalami teori black feminism Patricia Hill Collins dan hendak mengintegrasikannya dengan teori face-negotiation Stella Ting-Toomey. Penelitian ini didasarkan pada paradigma kritis dan menggunakan penekatan kualitatif. Menggunakan analisis wacana kritis Sara Mills sebagai teknik analisis data, penelitian ini menemukan representasi black feminism di dalam film Hidden Figures. Diskriminasi yang dialami para tokoh adalah berupa racism, sexism, dan classism. Akan tetapi, perlawanan yang dilakukan para tokoh adalah melalui self definition, tidak dilakukan dalam safe spaces sebagaimana disinggung oleh Collins. Para tokoh juga tidak menghindari konflik, namun menggunakan pendekatan negosiasi dengan gaya compromising style dalam mencapai win-win solution.Kata Kunci: Black feminism, face-negotiation, racism, sexism, classism
