  • Generation Z's Tweeting Thumbs and Marching Feet
    Generation Z’s Tweeting Thumbs and Marching Feet A study of how the ‘March for Our Lives’ student activists’ discursive solidarity on Twitter strives to achieve gun control by mobilising and politicising American youth Amanda Danielle Flint A dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree BA (Hons) Journalism and Media (Ind.) School of Media and Communication, University of Leeds May 2019 Word count: 11,996 Abstract The ‘Never Again’ movement, also known as the ‘March for Our Lives’ (MFOL), is the first notable statement about gun violence made by Americans born after 1999. On February 14th, 2018, a former student murdered 17 people at Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School (MSDHS) in Parkland, Florida. After Congress failed to ban assault rifles, survivors vocalised their dissent on Twitter. The students’ activism has disrupted the liberal democratic tradition of rational deliberation in the public sphere by circulating a solidary discourse of anger, empathy, hope, passion and humour. While this research is framed around a particular protest against gun violence, it contributes to academic debates about the public sphere, social media, emotion and young people’s political participation. Content analysis and a Foucauldian multimodal critical discourse analysis (MCDA) examine how a coalition of high school students endeavours to mobilise Generation Z within a digitally-equipped private sphere, subsequently engendering political action in a counter-public sphere resistant to dominant discourses. The activists’ tweets incorporate several performative, linguistic devices to communicate an informal, discursive solidarity. By operating in tandem with Twitter as a conduit of emotion, it disrupts the rational public sphere and advances the political participation needed to sustain a youth-led social movement.

  • Individual Claimsmaking After the Parkland Shooting* Deana A
    Individual Claimsmaking after the Parkland Shooting* Deana A. Rohlinger, Ph.D. Professor of Sociology Florida State University Caitria DeLucchi Graduate Student in Sociology Florida State University Warren Allen, Ph.D. Teaching Faculty Rutgers University *We thank Sourabh Singh for his feedback on this paper. The lead author thanks her early morning “writing with randos” group for their support, including Beth Popp Berman, Danna Agmon, Christina Ho, Sarah Woulfin, Derek Gottlieb, Dahlia Remler, Dale Winling, Meredith Broussard, Adam Slez, Didem Turkoglu, Jason Windawi, Elizabeth Mazzolini, Jennifer Sessions, Louise Seamster, Daniel Hirschman. 1 On February 14, 2018, a former student killed 17 people and injured 17 others at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida. Some of the student survivors mobilized in protest of loose gun laws, and state legislatures across the country began passing bills to restrict gun access. This was true even in Florida, which is a testing-ground for National Rifle Association (NRA) legislation and whose Republican-dominated legislature often rejects modest restrictions on gun access. In less than a month, the legislature passed “the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School Public Safety Act” (SB 7026), which raised the minimum age requirement for purchasing a firearm from 18 to 21, required a three-day waiting period for the purchase of a gun, prohibited the purchase and selling of bump stocks, expanded mental health services in the state, allocated monies to help harden schools, and funded a “marshal” program that allowed the arming of teachers and staff. Arguably, there are a number of reasons that the legislature opted for quick action.

  • Emma González: La Nueva Cara of Florida Latinx
    The Washington Post Post Nation Perspective Emma González: La nueva cara of Florida Latinx By Ed Morales About US is a new initiative by The Washington Post to cover issues of identity in the U.S. Sign up for the newsletter. In the aftermath of the horrific Valentine’s Day shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in South Florida, a new movement has emerged that constitutes the strongest voice for changing laws about automatic assault weapons since the Columbine massacre of 1999. Emma González, the face of this movement, took a leadership role with a passionate speech in front of the Broward County Courthouse, where she criticized President Trump and other politicians for accepting donations from the National Rifle Association. But while González and her fellow students David Hogg and Cameron Kasky represent a youth protest movement that may finally lead to more gun control, Emma stands out as an emblematic challenge to the old ways of Cuban-American voting preferences in Florida, one of the most important swing states in national elections. She also portends a new generation of Latino youth who have the potential to be major political players through their ability to straddle different constituencies and mold a coherent message for change. ADVERTISING The daughter of Jose González, now a lawyer who arrived from Cuba in New York in 1968, Emma is unwavering in her embrace of her identity. “I’m 18 years old, Cuban, and bisexual,” she says in the lead paragraph of her recent essay published in Harper’s Bazaar. While Univision reported that she does not speak Spanish, she doesn’t shy away from her Cuban identity.

  • “There Is No Gun Problem, There Is Only a People Problem”
    “There is no gun problem, there is only a people problem” Keywords in the American gun debate and their differing usage Ella Nordberg, 36768 Pro gradu-avhandling i engelska språket och litteraturen Handledare: Brita Wårvik Fakulteten för humaniora, psykologi och teologi Åbo Akademi 2020 ÅBO AKADEMI – FAKULTETEN FÖR HUMANIORA, PSYKOLOGI OCH TEOLOGI Abstrakt för avhandling pro gradu Ämne: Engelska språket och litteraturen Författare: Ella Nordberg Arbetets titel: “There is no gun problem, there is only a people problem”: Keywords in the American gun debate and their differing usage Handledare: Brita Wårvik Handledare: Abstrakt: The gun debate in the United States has been going on for decades. Whether or not new gun legislation should be implemented in the wake of repeated mass shootings and the public outrage that follows them is constantly debated, but little progress has been made in the way of lawmaking. This thesis explores the way that differing sides of the gun debate – those for gun control and those against – use different definitions and ways to present keywords that are frequently used in the gun debate. The study is an analysis of four speeches that were given by four different speakers in the wake of a school shooting in Parkland, Florida in 2018. The four selected speeches have been given by Emma Gonzalez and David Hogg, both students at the school, NRA CEO Wayne LaPierre and Republican Senator Marco Rubio. The hypothesis is that people on opposing sides of the debate will speak about and use the keywords in the text differently. Theoretical approaches used in the analysis include critical discourse analysis and strategic maneuvering.

  • An Analysis of Frames, News Coverage, and the March for Our Lives Movement
    Sojourners 265 Marching for Our Lives, Not Yours: An analysis of frames, news coverage, and the March for Our Lives movement Maren Tergesen University of British Columbia Abstract. This article examines youth activists from the “March for Our Lives” move- ment and how their identities impact their framing of gun violence. Analyzing speeches orated at one of the largest gun violence prevention (GVP) protests ever, this article ex- poses how the positionality and lived experience of white and/or affluent actors influences their framing and results in the exclusion of urban gun violence acted upon Black people and people of colour. This article finds that the MFOL movement reinforces racial hier- archies of worthy victims by describing the ‘characters’ and ‘settings’ of gun violence as those consistent with mass or school shootings. Despite the shortcomings of the MFOL movement, this paper suggests that the current issue attention cycle is conducive to con- versations about the intersections of gun violence with race and that activists of colour are the ones leading these conversations. Introduction On February 14th, 2018, fourteen students and three faculty of Marjory Stoneman Dou- glas (MSD) High School were killed in a school shooting in Parkland, Florida. Within three days of the shooting, a group of survivors formed an organization dubbed “Never Again MSD,” planned a nationwide day of protest called “March for Our Lives” (MFOL) and raised $3.7 million dollars for the cause (Andone 2018). These youth activists were widely applauded for their swift action and “for reminding America that the shooting was not a freak accident or a natural disaster but the result of actual human decisions” (Witt 2018).
