description This article ponders the question: “How might EdD research methods courses be reimagined to position Black Feminist Theory as a comparable theoretical framework to guide epistemological stance development and scholar-practitioner inquiry?” By introducing Black Feminist Theory as a viable theoretical framework, this article posits its potential incorporation into reimagined EdD research methods courses.  After providing a more detailed description of Black Feminist Theory and its associated constructs, the ways that Black Feminist Theory can shape scholar-practitioners’ inquiry is explored, including: 1) framing a problem of practice, 2) building conceptual and/or theoretical frameworks, and 3) connecting to research design and approaches. Implications for Black Feminist Theory’s alignment to the CPED framework are discussed.
