Abstract
- This constructivist grounded theory study explored a 3-year womanist affinity group for Black women across counseling programs at one university. The core category, homeplace, was identified as the foundation of the group process, with four categories: learning the hidden curriculum, expressing collective care, demonstrating womanish empowerment, and becoming the resistance. The affinity space aided identity and professional development, cultural reflection, and collective consciousness. Implications are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
