I’m conducting a study that explores the experiences of Black folks in nerd coded spaces, focusing on both the challenges and joys found within these communities. If you’re interested, please scan the QR code or email me at andrea-c-smith@uiowa.edu. I’d love to hear from you! 😄
Pink flyer that has black text describing the study “Call for Participants. Do you identify as black and are into anime video games, board games, and or comics? I wanna hear about your experiences in the spaces and beyond. Participation will include a 20 minute pre-interview survey and a 60 to 90 minute interview. If you’re interested, please scan the QR code or email Andrea Smith @Andrea-C-Smith@uiowa.edu”. The IRB number (202409056) is at the very bottom along with a University of Iowa logo. As far as decorations, there is a dark and light pink checkerboard print in the background and purple embellishments on the flyer like a cat in the bottom right corner, shooting star in the upper left corner, and fancy, curly heart in the center of the flyer. There’s also a hand making a K-pop heart in the bottom left hand corner as if to thank the reader for stopping to read and consider participating. 😄
