Palabras clave:
Inmigrantes negros africanos, Investigación narrativa, Liderazgo de los marginados, Epistemología del punto de vista de los inmigrantes negros africanos, Liderazgo escolarResumen
Este estudio da voz y visibilidad a líderes escolares inmigrantes negros africanos y les proporciona una plataforma para describir y dar sentido a sus experiencias vividas a través de la construcción de sus narrativas desde una perspectiva marginada. Utilizando la investigación narrativa, se identificaron y entrevistaron a trece narradores mediante preguntas abiertas y detalladas. Los tiempos iniciales de las entrevistas variaron de una a dos horas, y todos los participantes tuvieron al menos una conversación de seguimiento. Este estudio produjo una radiografía de sus almas y delineó seis constructos temáticos que sembraron el desarrollo de sus narrativas canónicas. La discusión generó una alineación entre los hallazgos y la literatura consultada e indicó recomendaciones para la investigación, la política y la práctica.
