Anjuliet WoodruffeAnjuliet Woodruffe, Ph.D., researches and teaches on issues of identity, culture, and history, looking at the ways in which individuals negotiate, (re)construct, and (re)imagine racialized identities in situated contexts, using auto/ethnographic, interviewing, and narrative methodologies to help convey and explore the cultural narratives and embodied knowledge of women that belong to marginalized and underrepresented groups, allowing us to (re)imagine the epistemologies of immigrant lives. Future scholarship will serve as a means of radical (re)imagination of identity and identity negotiation.

Dr. Woodruffe’s publications include Conversations with My Son: A Poetic Autoethnography of Black Mothering Experiences in Cultural Studies--Critical Methodologies (2022), Surviving From the Margins: A Conversation about Identity with James Baldwin in International Review of Qualitative Research (2021), and the coauthored The Future of Autoethnography is Black in the Journal of Autoethnography (2020, with Durham, A., McFerguson, M., and Sanders, S.J.).
