Du Bois, American sociology, and the evolution of Africana critical theory -- Africana studies literary methodology and disciplinary competency -- Why decoloniality? -- August Wilson and the jazz theory of black/Africana studies -- No Malcolm X in my history test -- Transdisciplinary orientations: theory, methodology, and the literatures of the African diaspora -- Towards an Africana studies paradigm of black music: a dialogue with Portia Maultsby -- African American discourse analysis -- The role of epistemology in methodological approaches used to study the black community and other marginalized groups -- Research methods in Africana studies -- Determining the association between perceived stress levels and body mass index levels by gender, healthcare, and nutritious food consumption among African American college freshmen at a rural historically black university in Texas -- Measuring African American female college athletes' athletic identity to determine support service needs -- The relationships among black consciousness, self-esteem, self-efficacy, and academic achievement in African American students -- (Re)locating the African woman within African historiography: methodological considerations for producing gender-balanced history rooted in Afrocentric theory -- A call to action: African-centered theory, methodology, and curriculum development for a graduate sport management program with an HBCU athletics (the sporting HBCU diaspora) concentration This book critically examines the collection, interpretation, and analysis of quantitative and qualitative data from an Afrocentric perspective. The necessity of interpretive Afrocentric research is relevant to position agency and to locate Africana studies in place, space, and time.
