| Abstract | Researchers have explored the juxtaposition of racial identity and spirituality and/or religious identity of Black collegians (Herndon, 2010; Stewart, 2009; K. L. Walker & Dixon, 2002). Though spirituality and religion are often (inter)connected, Hill and colleagues (2000) argued that religion is often associated with proscribing "a search for the sacred" or "search for non-sacred goals" (e.g., sense of belonging) that receives "validation and support from within an identifiable group of people" (e.g., a religious institution) and spirituality is about a search for the sacred that may or may not be proscribed by an organized entity. Researchers have found that spirituality and religion are sources of resiliency for Black college students as they navigate predominantly White campus environments and/or academic demands (Herndon, 2010; Patton & McClure, 2009; Wood & Hilton, 2012); however, heteronormativity and homophobia can complicate the relationship between self and religion and spirituality for Black lesbian, gay, bisexual, and queer (LGBQ) students (McGuire, Cisneros, & McGuire, 2017; Means, 2017; Washington & Wall, 2010). Building on Patton and McClure's (2009) study on African American women and the role of spirituality in their collegiate lives, the authors sought to better understand the role of spirituality in the lives of Black LGBQ students through a qualitative case study. Their research questions were: (1) How do Black LGBQ undergraduate and graduate students define spirituality? and (2) What resources and spaces are available to Black LGBQ undergraduate and graduate students to develop, practice, and/or exercise their spirituality? They were interested in how Black LGBQ students define spirituality, if religion is included in their definition, and how they exercise their spirituality. (ERIC). |
