%X The concept awareness, proposed years ago to study contexts of interaction and processes of identity between nursingcare personnel and dying patients, may form a methodological and theoretical basis to study ageism. Moreover, awarenessis proposed here to be revisited as a core category referring to basic social processes and discursive axes underling variousphenomena such as racism, sexism, or ageism. My aim in this article is a retrospective research storytelling circa the caseof aging immigrants as people who have experienced multiple minority discrimination. A discourse and grounded theoryanalysis were used to reanalyze a selection of qualitative material gathered over the course of two sets of research projectson xenophobia (2006–2012) and multiple discrimination (2013–2019). Becoming aware of ageism in the case of agingimmigrants and the researcher himself serves as an exercise of methodological, self-reflexive, qualitative, and embodiedenquiry for a better understanding of sociological ageism.
