“You Can Only Deny Me for So Long by Saying That I Don't “YOU CAN ONLY DENY ME FOR SO LONG BY SAYING THAT I DON’T EXIST”: A CRITICAL EXAMINATION OF RACIALIZED FEMMEPHOBIA AND FEMME INVISIBILITY by: Céline Françoise Donelle, B.A. A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Post-Doctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts In Women’s and Gender Studies Pauline Jewett Institute of Women’s and Gender Studies Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2017, Céline Françoise Donelle Abstract This is a research project exploring the intersections of femme subjectivity, femmephobia, and race and racism. Specifically, I critique an essentialized understanding of femmephobia which centralizes ‘unmarked’ white femme bodies, and thus silences the experiences of queer racialized femmes. By way of semi-structured interviews with ten queer racialized femmes and an exploration of corporate media representations of racialized queer femmes, this thesis examines how discussions of race and racism are integral to discussions surrounding femmephobia and femme invisibility. I argue both that corporate media productions increase invisibility and erasure for femmes but also how this invisibility and erasure has shaped the experiences of racialized queer femmes in particular. i Acknowledgements First and foremost, thank you to my thesis supervisor, Patrizia Gentile, for the endless guidance, patience, and wisdom. You have taught me that through life’s many adversities, I can get back up and keep writing. That my insecurities are not flaws, but rather building blocks to something greater. This process would have not been the same without you. I would also like to extend thanks to my second reader, Grace Adeniyi Ogunyankin, for her support and insightful feedback throughout the writing process. Thank you to my external examiner, Dan Irving, for offering many valuable and important critiques during my thesis defence. I would also like to thank Tina Barton for her kind words of encouragements, support, and countless edits. I would like to thank my partner, Adella Khan, for the countless support. Your love, through meal preps and pep talks and spontaneous date nights has showed me what it feels like to let love in. You have taught me the importance of hard work but most importantly, the importance of self-care. This last year you have stood by my side through trauma and health issues, all while encouraging me to keep writing. You inspire me to better myself every day. This thesis is as much yours as is it mine. I would like to extend many thanks to my best femme friend, Matthew Conte. Thank you for being a kind and supportive friend throughout this entire process and for letting me vent and cry to you more times than I can count. In you I have found a lifetime friend, a fellow queer angel, and I truly believe, as we would always say during our Masters that, “if this M.A. doesn’t get us anything else in life at least we got this friendship”. These last two years would have not been the same without you. I attribute much of my personal and academic growth to you and our friendship. ii I would like to thank the femmes in my life that have offered me such love, support, and countless laughs throughout these past years: Melissa Conte, Chloe Barker, Mars Ramlogan, and to the year-long friendships that have gotten me to this point: Jeremie Brun, Miguel Robichaud, Carolyne Mellon, Malika Rogosin, Sarah Conway, Stephanie Webber. Merci à ma grande soeur, Véronique Donelle, pour toujours m’avoir encouragé à être une better personne. Pour toujours être la pour me cheerer on. Chtaime beaucoup. Un gros merci à mes parents, Françine Donelle pis Gary Donelle. You have taught me the value of hard work and have raised me to believe in myself no matter what. You have showed me that it does not take countless degrees, or any degrees at all, to understand social injustice and to take action. That I should be proud of who I am and where I came from and to never let anyone make me feel otherwise. Thank you for encouraging me to talk about my research even though many of these words do not translate into Chiac. Even though many of these words you have not heard before.

Dabney, Melina Kristine (BA/MA Film Studies) Re-mixing Old Character Tropes on Screen: Kerry Washington, Viola Davis, and the New Femininity Thesis directed by Professor Melinda Barlow While there is a substantial amount of scholarship on the depiction of African American women in film and television, this thesis exposes the new formations of African American femininity on screen. African American women have consistently resisted, challenged, submitted to, and remixed racial myths and sexual stereotypes existing in American cinema and television programming. Mainstream film and television practices significantly contribute to the reinforcement of old stereotypes in contemporary black women characters. However, based on the efforts of African American producers like Shonda Rhimes, who has attempted to insert more realistic renderings of African American women in her recent television shows, black women’s representation is undergoing yet another shift in contemporary media.

  • University LGBT Centers and the Professional Roles Attached to Such Spaces Are Roughly
    INTRODUCTION University LGBT Centers and the professional roles attached to such spaces are roughly 45-years old. Cultural and political evolution has been tremendous in that time and yet researchers have yielded a relatively small field of literature focusing on university LGBT centers. As a scholar-activist practitioner struggling daily to engage in a critically conscious life and professional role, I launched an interrogation of the foundational theorizing of university LGBT centers. In this article, I critically examine the discursive framing, theorization, and practice of LGBT campus centers as represented in the only three texts specifically written about center development and practice. These three texts are considered by center directors/coordinators, per my conversations with colleagues and search of the literature, to be the canon in terms of how centers have been conceptualized and implemented. The purpose of this work was three-fold. Through a queer feminist lens focused through interlocking systems of oppression and the use of critical discourse analysis (CDA) 1, I first examined the methodological frameworks through which the canonical literature on centers has been produced. The second purpose was to identify if and/or how identity and multicultural frameworks reaffirmed whiteness as a norm for LGBT center directors. Finally, I critically discussed and raised questions as to how to interrupt and resist heteronormativity and homonormativity in the theoretical framing of center purpose and practice. Hired to develop and direct the University of Washington’s first lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT2) campus center in 2004, I had the rare opportunity to set and implement with the collaboration of queerly minded students, faculty, and staff, a critically theorized and reflexive space.

  • Black Women, Natural Hair, and New Media (Re)Negotiations of Beauty
    “IT’S THE FEELINGS I WEAR”: BLACK WOMEN, NATURAL HAIR, AND NEW MEDIA (RE)NEGOTIATIONS OF BEAUTY By Kristin Denise Rowe A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of African American and African Studies—Doctor of Philosophy 2019 ABSTRACT “IT’S THE FEELINGS I WEAR”: BLACK WOMEN, NATURAL HAIR, AND NEW MEDIA (RE)NEGOTIATIONS OF BEAUTY By Kristin Denise Rowe At the intersection of social media, a trend in organic products, and an interest in do-it-yourself culture, the late 2000s opened a space for many Black American women to stop chemically straightening their hair via “relaxers” and begin to wear their hair natural—resulting in an Internet-based cultural phenomenon known as the “natural hair movement.” Within this context, conversations around beauty standards, hair politics, and Black women’s embodiment have flourished within the public sphere, largely through YouTube, social media, and websites. My project maps these conversations, by exploring contemporary expressions of Black women’s natural hair within cultural production. Using textual and content analysis, I investigate various sites of inquiry: natural hair product advertisements and internet representations, as well as the ways hair texture is evoked in recent song lyrics, filmic scenes, and non- fiction prose by Black women. Each of these “hair moments” offers a complex articulation of the ways Black women experience, share, and negotiate the socio-historically fraught terrain that is racialized body politics
