- 요약Basketball has traditionally been viewed as a man's sport (Mohamed, 2017). As a result, much of the ethnographic research on basketball has centered the male perspective (Atencio & Wright, 2008; Jimerson & Oware, 2006; Thangaraj, 2015; Mohamed, 2017; Vieyra, 2016). In response to this dominant framing - and inspired by Mohammed's (2017) question, "Where My Girls At?" which calls attention to the underrepresentation of this particular group (i.e., girls) - I spent seven months (from August 2024 to February 2025) engaging with Black women and girls at two sites, a youth basketball academy in Florida and four public courts in the state, to learn more about their hooping experiences. Immersing myself in these spaces as a complete participant, actively involved in various activities, presented a unique opportunity to not only reflect on my journey as a Black woman but also help illuminate the journeys of 11 other Black women and girls. I suspected that bias might explain our lack of participation, and the research process supported this concern: for 11 of the 12 individuals featured in this study, myself included, the intersections of race, gender, and other identity markers led to prejudice, discrimination, and stereotyping. Equally important for an inquiry grounded in Black feminisms, which stress the value of Black women/girls sharing our experiences, naming the oppressions that negatively impact them, and creating pathways to freedom, participants also shared the strategies they used to navigate, negotiate, and resist these unwelcoming sporting environments (George, 2022).
