reflection on relating to participants: When I first started conducting qualitative research, I was very hesitant to let my ownidentities and ways of being influence the ways in which I conducted participant interviews infear of guiding the interview. Initially, I took a distanced approach to interviewing participants; Iwould not share any of my life experiences with them, I would not laugh if they told a joke. I justcontinued with my questions. However, as I gained experience and grew more skilled inconducting interviews, I realized that I had to do more than sit and ask questions, particularlywhen discussing a topic as personal as identity. Building the necessary participant rapport to gaindeeper insights into participants’ lives became

Specifically, we have assessed and chosen to work with rootcause analysis according to the Highlander Research and Education Center’s theory of change[9]. This framework provides analytical methods for moving from identified issues (such as lackof tenure, lack of support for research, lack of funding) toward uncovering greater structuraloppressions that foment particular forms of inequity. It thus focuses on a transactional anddynamic analysis for change-making strategies which ties into our initial network analysis foridentifying the problems at hand.Myles Horton, as founder of the Highlander Research and Education Center, was
