What makes a good mentor? What makes a bad mentor?
What challenges can arise based on how we mentor? Traditional mentoring relationships- “socialize
individuals into a preexisting environment… intentionally or unintentionally reproducing systems of inequality” (p. 116).
Rituals of Control- “Domination the unjust exercise of power” (p. 109). Narratives of who mentees are silenced and
excluded

“Explore the possibilities of creating trust in a
collaborative narrative research relationships…” (p.108)
Trust- “The belief that others will not deliberately or knowingly do us harm, if they can avoid it, and will look after our interests if this is possible” (p. 109). Conceptualized within a socio-political context

Co-reflection- “a collaborative critical thinking
process mediated by, language, broadly construed to include all meaningful signs” (p. 110).
Narrative reflection- Used to explore issues of trust. “…it offers a venue for uncovering the often paradoxical and complex ways that race may play out in a mentoring relationship” (p. 110).

Collaborative research model- “The individual
acknowledges the power inequities and work against them by sharing power during the research process” (p. 113).
Collaborative research- “It can bring together a board social analysis… the self-study of practice, the way language is used, organization and power in a local situation, and [social or political] action” (p. 114).

Collaborative narrative inquiry- “Provides a
way to develop trust and interrogate power inequities such as issues of race, power, and status. “It is an confessional tale which allows the
research’s experience of doing the study [to] become the focus of the investigation” (p. 114).
