Summary:

Racially minoritized students face additional challenges (such as racist microaggressions and microinvalidations) during their time at university which are often traumatic in nature. This research explored the lived experience of religious racially minoritized students to understand the protective role that religion may play in navigating racially specific challenges. . Data were collected from nine racially minoritized religious students at the University of York using the digital storytelling procedure-a method that enables the exploration of potentially traumatic experiences in a guided, focused, and psychologically safe manner. All sessions were run online. This Case Study explores the experience of the digital storytelling data-collection process and discusses the strengths and challenges encountered, including participant recruitment, establishing trust, managing sensitive and identifiable information, and ensuring researcher and participant psychological safety. It is anticipated that this Case Study will provide a usable framework for student researchers to consider the impact that the digital storytelling procedure can have on projects exploring potentially traumatic psychological experiences. It also will prove worthwhile to those examining the lived experiences of individuals from other historically marginalized backgrounds where empowerment of research participants is a core ethical consideration.
