This article traces the development of Blackout Poetic Transcription (BPT) as a critical methodology for artist-scholars engaged with Hip Hop pedagogy in higher education spaces.  We include Keith’s outline of the BPT method and Endsly’s first hand account of implementing the practice in an undergraduate classroom. Together, the authors grapple with mainstream and alternative identities within their Hip Hop praxis as spoken word artists and educators.

This essay takes up the concept of “thresholds” as it was developed in the Spring 2014 issue of Departures in Critical Qualitative Research. It opens up a fertile seam of thought about encounters with people labeled as “disabled” and with one's own child in particular. The article troubles the processes of normalization, and opens up the space of difference by excavating its unspeakability. The stories of two mothers and their disabled children are told using the concept of thresholds to examine their encounters with (the difference of) their children. The essay concludes with implications for professional practice.

Youth participatory action research is part of a revolutionary effort in educational research to take inquiry-based knowledge production out of the sole purview of academic institutions and include those who most directly experience the educational contexts that scholars endeavor to understand. Seeking to extend the robust legacy of participatory action research in schools and communities, in this article, we focus on the pedagogical contributions of youth participatory action research collaborations for the teaching of critical qualitative research. We discuss strategies developed and implemented in an after-school youth participatory action research seminar in order to highlight how collaborative educational spaces can contribute to teaching and engaging in critical qualitative research. We also reflect, in our role as educators and researchers, on the possibilities and limitations of teaching qualitative research critically and reflexively, particularly at the intersection of qualitative action research, critical literacies, and youth social action. We conclude with a discussion of the broader implications of collaborative inquiry for the teaching of qualitative research in education and beyond.

The Special Section documents the resonance of the cancelation of ICQI 2020 in three movements. First, the coming together of long-time participants through electronic means for a short performative video that featured collaborative voices speaking to the power and importance of critical qualitative research in repressive times. Second, documenting on May 21, 2020, on what would have been the first day of the conference, a Zoom gathering was held with nearly 30 scholars from around the world, who would have converged on the University of Illinois-Urbana campus–responding together in a virtual but all-together real community space to share thoughts, feelings, outpourings, promises, and possibilities of critical qualitative research in repressive times. Third, a short sampling of performative scholarships reflecting on both themes of anticipated ICQI panels and emergent commentaries on world politics, COVID-19, the environment, revolution, resistance, and hope.

Inspired by work/think/play in qualitative research, we centered the idea of “play” in a qualitative research project to explore what proceeding from the idea of work/think/play might look like and accomplish. We pursued play in an experimental qualitative inquiry over dinner one night at the 2016 Annual Meeting of the American Educational Research Association. Our article centers on one work/think/play inquiry three of us conducted. Through a playful account of how play unfolded in our work/think/play inquiry that evening, we explore research play as generative, deadly, and censored in the context of neoliberalism and other terrors. We reflect on what (good) play does in qualitative research, what our work/think/play/birth/death/terror/qualitative/research accomplished, if anything. Maybe research play is vital, what keeps us fit to do critical qualitative research. Yet research play moves (well) beyond normative rules of much qualitative research. Is it worth the risk? Can we know? Even after?

AbstractThis study aims to analyze the background and sustainability of plurality or diversity of Indonesian art and culture in the form of implementation as a revitalization of traditional performing arts. Qualitative research with an ethnographic approach and an emic and ethical point of view are employed to observe it. The richness of art —both material and non-material with its various aspects are created through struggles against nature, space, and time which are not always easy to address. The cone-shaped cultural wealth as an art is created from the depths of consciousness, understanding, and insight which are not simple but bearing various symbols. The use of symbols in the form of art lengthens its roots from one generation to the next as a representation of the clarity and wisdom of the crystallization of the intelligence of feelings and thoughts. Informal and non-formal educations are efforts which can be done by the present generation to confirm its sustainability. In the vastness of a very open global era, as intercultural interactions intensify, a strong and resilient culture is needed. As something inherited, the future sustainability lies in the hands of the generation, i.e. the society of the recipients in the present and the future.Keywords: Indonesian art; traditional dance; batik; mamacaAbstrakKeberlanjutan dan Penguatan Seni-Budaya. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis latar belakang dan keberlanjutan pluralitas atau keberagaman seni budaya Indonesia dalam wujud pelaksanaan sebagai suatu revitalisasi seni pertunjukan tradisi. Penelitian kualitatif dengan pendekatan etnografis dan sudut pandang emik serta etik ditempatkan untuk mencermatinya. Kekayaan seni – budaya baik bendawi maupun non bendawi dengan berbagai aspeknya diciptakan melalui pergulatan terhadap alam, ruang, dan waktu yang tidak selalu mudah disikapi. Kekayaan budaya yang mengerucut sebagai seni yang diciptakan dari kedalaman kesadaran, pemahaman, serta penghayatan yang tidak sederhana bermuatan berbagai simbol. Penggunaan simbol-simbol dalam wujud seni, memanjangkan akarnya dari satu generasi ke generasi berikutnya sebagai representasi kejernihan dan kearifan dari kristalisasi kecerdasan perasaan dan pikiran. Melalui dan di dalam pendidikan baik formal maupun non formal adalah upaya yang dapat dilakukan oleh generasi sekarang untuk meneguhkan keberlanjutannya. Di keluasan era global yang sangat terbuka, ketika interaksi kebudayaan antarbangsa semakin intensif, sungguh diperlukan ketahanan budaya yang sangat kuat dan tangguh. Sebagai sesuatu yang diwariskan, maka kelanjutannya di masa depan berada di tangan generasi pewarisnya, yaitu masyarakat penerimanya pada saat sekarang maupun yang akan datang.Kata kunci: kesenian Indonesia; tari tradisi; batik; mamaca
