PRESENTER(S): Veronica Gerace, EdD,Faculty and Honors Program Equity Coordinator, San Diego Mesa College 1600: Post Traumatic Slave Syndrome: America’s Legacy of Enduring Injury and Healing 8:00 p.m. - 9:15 p.m. Session Type: Keynote Session Track: Intersectionality, Identities and Discussions Experience Level: All Levels Post Traumatic Slave Syndrome explores the psychological and emotional impact on African Americans after enduring the horrific Middle Passage, over 300 years of slavery, followed by continued discrimination. From the beginning of American chattel slavery in the 1500’s, until the ratification of the Thirteenth Amendment in 1865, African Americans experienced the worst kind of physical, emotional, psychological, and spiritual abuse. Given such history, Dr. Joy DeGruy asked the question, “Isn’t it likely those enslaved were severely traumatized? Furthermore, did the trauma and the effects of such horrific abuse end with the abolition of slavery?” Emancipation was followed by another hundred years of institutionalized subjugation through the enactment of Black Codes and Jim Crow laws, peonage and convict leasing, and domestic terrorism and lynching. Today the violations continue, and when combined with the crimes of the past, they result in further unmeasured injury. What do repeated traumas visited upon generation after generation of a people produce? What are the impacts of the ordeals associated with chattel slavery, and with the institutions that followed, on African Americans today? Dr. DeGruy addresses these questions and encourages her audience to understand African American attitudes, assumptions, and emotions through the lens of history. By doing so, she argues people will gain a greater understanding of the impact centuries of slavery and oppression has had on African Americans and on every race and culture in the country. PRESENTER(S): Joy DeGruy, MSW, MS, PhD,, Wednesday, May 30th 2001: Playing While White: Power and Privilege on/off the Field 8:30 a.m. - 9:45 a.m. Session Type: Major Workshop Session Track: Race and Social Justice in Higher Education Experience Level: All Levels This session explores the ways that white athletes are profiled as intelligent leaders, as hard workers, underdogs, and role models; it examines the ways that whiteness is imagined as innocent, desirable, and redeemable. To be white in America is to continuously cash in on historically and institutionally produces privilege. It is to reap the benefits of American racism. PRESENTER(S): David J. Leonard, PhD,Professor, Department of Critical Culture, Gender, and Race Studies Washington State University 2002: New Orleans at 300: History, Public Memory, and Post-Katrina Reality 8:30 a.m. - 9:45 a.m. Session Type: Major Workshop Session Track: Race and Social Justice in Higher Education Experience Level: All Levels As a port city with a hybridization of Native, African, and European cultures, New Orleans has always attracted visitors titillated by its exoticism and carnivalesque atmosphere. The tourism industry has depended on black culture and labor to promote the city, while relying on black stereotypes and exclusions to perpetuate narratives of New Orleans’s racial exceptionalism. Thirteen years after Hurricane Katrina, tourism has rebounded, forming the centerpiece of citywide reforms in education, the economy, and the arts. This lecture pursues the following questions: What stories and histories are effaced in traditional tourism narratives of New Orleans? What avenues are available for communities whose histories have been effaced to research, reclaim, and reproduce those histories? How might these reclaimed histories reshape the physical and ideological landscape of a city with a grossly unequal distribution of resources and power? An analysis of non-traditional sources such as souvenirs, guide books, and tours, uncovers New Orleans tourism as a complicated site for navigating race, public memory, and public policy. The impassioned national debates over the removal of Confederate monuments demonstrate that the decisions about which history, whose culture, and what types of diversity are represented are always in process and invariably contested. As New Orleans celebrates its tercentenary, there are new calls to reassess, document, and disseminate a new public history of the city that challenges the official narratives promoted by the tourism industry. This talk will be of interest to those in the higher education community. PRESENTER(S): Lynnell L. Thomas, PhD,Associate Professor, American Studies University of Massachusetts Boston 2004: UC Berkeley's Undocu-Healing Model: A Culturally-Responsive Mental Health Support Program for Undocumented Students in the Trump Era 8:30 a.m. - 9:45 a.m. Session Type: Concurrent Workshop Session Track: Global, Multicultural and Transnational issues Experience Level: Intermediate This session provides an overview of UC Berkeley's Undocu-Healing Model for mental health support for undocumented students. Housed within UCB's Undocumented Student Program, the mental health program offers a range of psychological support opportunities for undocumented and mixed-status students. In this presentation, the background and development of the Undocu-Healing model will be provided, which includes individual support, psycho-educational workshops, coordination of wrap- around health services, and cross-campus partnerships to change systemic barriers for support. Further, the presenter will address 4 key areas of cultural responsiveness: 1) Providing anonymous and confidential opportunities for emotional support; 2) Providing clinical services using racism/xenophobia- , trauma-, and social justice- informed foundations; 3) Infusing legal resources, local advocacy, and community wisdom into student services; and 4) Collaborating with non-mental health departments on campus to create and advocate for initiatives that reduce barriers for retention. This session should benefit professional staff, administrators, diversity officers, deans, campus service directors, and administrators who are concerned with the retention and well-being of undocumented students in this hostile political climate.

In particular, it examines the deployment of Emory's Commission on Racial and Social Justice, a macro- level process of institutional accountability, and the Emory Conversation Project, a micro-level skill- building program to train students to engage about and across their difference, as examples of synergistic interventions employed at the institutional and programmatic level. Participants will engage in an exercise designed to spark social justice innovation within the context of their own institution. This session should particularly benefit participants who are interested in developing multi-level, proactive, and complementary social justice responses uniquely designed for their institution.

  • Culture Wars' Reloaded: Trump, Anti-Political Correctness and the Right's 'Free Speech' Hypocrisy
    The 'Culture Wars' Reloaded: Trump, Anti-Political Correctness and the Right's 'Free Speech' Hypocrisy Dr. Valerie Scatamburlo-D'Annibale University of Windsor, Windsor, Ontario, Canada Abstract This article explores how Donald Trump capitalized on the right's decades-long, carefully choreographed and well-financed campaign against political correctness in relation to the broader strategy of 'cultural conservatism.' It provides an historical overview of various iterations of this campaign, discusses the mainstream media's complicity in promulgating conservative talking points about higher education at the height of the 1990s 'culture wars,' examines the reconfigured anti- PC/pro-free speech crusade of recent years, its contemporary currency in the Trump era and the implications for academia and educational policy. Keywords: political correctness, culture wars, free speech, cultural conservatism, critical pedagogy Introduction More than two years after Donald Trump's ascendancy to the White House, post-mortems of the 2016 American election continue to explore the factors that propelled him to office. Some have pointed to the spread of right-wing populism in the aftermath of the 2008 global financial crisis that culminated in Brexit in Europe and Trump's victory (Kagarlitsky, 2017; Tufts & Thomas, 2017) while Fuchs (2018) lays bare the deleterious role of social media in facilitating the rise of authoritarianism in the U.S. and elsewhere. Other 69 | P a g e The 'Culture Wars' Reloaded: Trump, Anti-Political Correctness and the Right's 'Free Speech' Hypocrisy explanations refer to deep-rooted misogyny that worked against Hillary Clinton (Wilz, 2016), a backlash against Barack Obama, sedimented racism and the demonization of diversity as a public good (Major, Blodorn and Blascovich, 2016; Shafer, 2017).

  • MIAMI UNIVERSITY the Graduate School
    MIAMI UNIVERSITY The Graduate School Certificate for Approving the Dissertation We hereby approve the Dissertation of Bridget Christine Gelms Candidate for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy ______________________________________ Dr. Jason Palmeri, Director ______________________________________ Dr. Tim Lockridge, Reader ______________________________________ Dr. Michele Simmons, Reader ______________________________________ Dr. Lisa Weems, Graduate School Representative ABSTRACT VOLATILE VISIBILITY: THE EFFECTS OF ONLINE HARASSMENT ON FEMINIST CIRCULATION AND PUBLIC DISCOURSE by Bridget C. Gelms As our digital environments—in their inhabitants, communities, and cultures—have evolved, harassment, unfortunately, has become the status quo on the internet (Duggan, 2014 & 2017; Jane, 2014b). Harassment is an issue that disproportionately affects women, particularly women of color (Citron, 2014; Mantilla, 2015), LGBTQIA+ women (Herring et al., 2002; Warzel, 2016), and women who engage in social justice, civil rights, and feminist discourses (Cole, 2015; Davies, 2015; Jane, 2014a). Whitney Phillips (2015) notes that it’s politically significant to pay attention to issues of online harassment because this kind of invective calls “attention to dominant cultural mores” (p. 7). Keeping our finger on the pulse of such attitudes is imperative to understand who is excluded from digital publics and how these exclusions perpetuate racism and sexism to “preserve the internet as a space free of politics and thus free of challenge to white masculine heterosexual hegemony” (Higgin, 2013, n.p.). While rhetoric and writing as a field has a long history of examining myriad exclusionary practices that occur in public discourses, we still have much work to do in understanding how online harassment, particularly that which is gendered, manifests in digital publics and to what rhetorical effect.

  • Selling Marvel's Cinematic Superheroes
    Stream: Culture/Politics/Technology 2016, Vol 8(2), 23-35 © The Author(s), 2016 http://journals.sfu.ca/stream Selling Marvel’s Cinematic Superheroes through Militarization Brett Pardy School of Communication Simon Fraser University Abstract The Marvel comics film adaptations have been some of the most successful Hollywood products of the post 9/11 period, bringing formerly obscure cultural texts into the mainstream. Through an analysis of the adaptation process of Marvel Entertainment’s superhero franchise from comics to film, I argue that militarization has been used by Hollywood as a discursive formation with which to transform niche properties into mass market products. I consider the locations of narrative ambiguities in two key comics texts, The Ultimates (2002-2007) and The New Avengers (2005-2012), as well as in the film The Avengers (2011), and demonstrate the significant reorientation towards the military of the film franchise. While Marvel had attempted to produce film adaptations for decades, only under the new “militainment” discursive formation was it finally successful. I argue that superheroes are malleable icons, known largely by the public by their image and perhaps general character traits rather than their narratives. Militainment is introduced through a discourse of realism provided by Marvel Studios as an indicator that the property is not just for children. Keywords: militarization, popular film, comic books, adaptation 1. Introduction Nick Fury, head of the Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division (S.H.I.E.L.D) tells his team of assembled superheroes: “there was an idea… called the Avengers Initiative. The idea was to bring together a group of remarkable people, see if they could become something more.
