On most websites, there is no regulating organ, except the Terms of Service that every registered user has to abide by. The standard version (used on websites like Facebook) includes a clause stipulating that the user should not: “use the Services […] to : upload, post, transmit, share, […] any User content [deemed] harmful, threatening, unlawful, defamatory, infringing, abusive, inflammatory, harassing, vulgar, obscene, […] hateful, or racially, ethnically or otherwise objectionable”.

  • Introduction: Memories of Slavery
    INTRODUCTION MEMORIES OF SLAVERY On 27 April 1848, the Second Republic abolished slavery in its French overseas colonies thus ending three centuries of African slave trade and forced plantation labor. One hundred fifty years later the government of the Fifth Republic for the first time or- ganized extensive official celebrations to commemorate this historic event. The past was resurrected, invading the present with countless memories—though undoubtedly not the same for the French nation and for the formerly enslaved popula- tions in the overseas départements of Guadeloupe, Martinique, French Guiana, and Reunion.1 The governmental commemorations of April 1998 were varied and all took place in France. President Jacques Chirac gave an opening speech, Prime Minister Lionel Jospin hon- ored the abolitionary fervor of the small village of Champag- ney, various ministers presented plaques commemorating important abolitionary figures and French Caribbean artists were invited for a variety of artistic performances. The over- seas domains also organized their own local commemorative functions including exhibitions, conferences, and theater pro- ductions as well as the inauguration of memorials. In Mar- tinique, for instance, scenes of the slave trade were reenacted with the arrival of a slave vessel, the unloading of slaves, and the reconstitution of a slave market. In Guadeloupe, a flame honoring the memory of the nèg mawon (fugitive slave) passed from township to township during the entire year preceding the 150th anniversary and was returned to its starting point amid celebrations, dances, and traditional music. 2 Catherine Reinhardt The most revealing aspects of the commemoration lie in the articles of major French and French Caribbean newspapers such as Le Monde, Libération, Le Figaro, and France-Antilles writ- ten for the occasion.

  • “Ain't Gonna Worry No More”: Depictions of the American South In
    “Ain’t Gonna Worry No More”: Depictions of the American South in Randy Newman’s Good Old Boys Kate Coleman, B.A. Submitted in partial requirement for Special Honors in the Department of English The University of Texas at Austin May 2017 _____________________________________________________ Professor Coleman Hutchison Department of English Supervising Faculty _____________________________________________________ Professor Matthew Valentine Plan II Honors Second Reader Abstract Randy Newman’s album Good Old Boys (1974) is a southern concept album. Newman employs several narrators on the album in order to explore multiple perspectives and elements that illuminate southern identity. Newman’s observations result in a view of the South as disenfranchised, defeated not only by their regional prejudice and own mistakes, but by moral hypocrisy and abandonment from the rest of the United States. In implicating the rest of the country, Newman indicates that the struggles highlighted in the South and southern identity are not simply a result of regional dynamics, but indicative of larger American dynamics. What’s more, many of Newman’s observations and commentary withstand the test of time, and maintain relevance to political and social dynamics still present today. In providing biographical, historical, social, and musical context, as well as close-reading the album, the thesis not only explores Newman’s methods, but argues for his larger goals. Through analyzing and engaging with reviews of the album, both contemporary and modern, this thesis establishes Good Old Boys’ lasting relevance and legacy. i For my father, who not only taught me how to listen, but encouraged me to speak. ii Acknowledgements Never thought I’d make it, but I always do somehow.

  • Reconceptualizing the Debate Over Linguistic Reclamation Robin Brontsema University of Colorado at Boulder
    Brontsema: A Queer Revolution A Queer Revolution: Reconceptualizing the Debate Over Linguistic Reclamation Robin Brontsema University of Colorado at Boulder The debate over linguistic reclamation, the appropriation of a pejorative epithet by its target(s), is generally conceived of as a simple binary of support and opposition. I offer an alternative conceptualization that shows both the complex contrasts and commonalities within the debate. Specifically, I identify three perspectives: (1) that the term is inseparable from its pejoration and therefore its reclamation is opposed; (2) that it is separable from its pejoration and therefore its reclamation is supported; and (3) that it is inseparable from its pejoration and therefore its reclamation is supported. Additionally, by examining different goals within and across reclamations, I demonstrate the difficulty of assigning a fixed outcome of success or failure. Although the term queer serves as the primary case study, the terms black, nigger, cunt, and dyke supplement and expand the discussion from a specific study of queer to linguistic reclamation in general. 1. Introduction Hate speech intended to disable its target simultaneously enables its very resistance; its injurious power is the same fuel that feeds the fire of its counter-appropriation. Laying claim to the forbidden, the word as weapon is taken up and taken back by those it seeks to shackle—a self-emancipation that defies hegemonic linguistic ownership and the (ab)use of power. Linguistic reclamation, also known as linguistic resignification or reappropriation, refers to the appropriation of a pejorative epithet by its target(s). The linguist Melinda Yuen-Ching Chen offers the following definition: “The term ‘reclaiming’ refers to an array of theoretical and conventional interpretations of both linguistic and non-linguistic collective acts in which a derogatory sign or signifier is consciously employed by the ‘original’ target of the derogation, often in a positive or oppositional sense” (1998:130).

  • Trump, the KKK, and the Versatility of White Supremacy Rhetoric
    Journal of Contemporary Rhetoric, Vol. 8, No.1/2, 2018, pp. 44-56. Trump, the KKK, and the Versatility of White Supremacy Rhetoric James Chase Sanchez This article theorizes the use of rhetorical versatility as a language tool for white supremacists in the age of Donald Trump, specifically referring to the ways Trump and the KKK speak to their various audiences through textual winks and polysemy. After demonstrating the recent rise of white supremacist groups in this country, rhetorical versatility is explored as way for rhetors to camouflage and signal their ideological viewpoints, which ultimately leads to an analysis of key terms and ideas that both the KKK and Trump utilize in the public sphere: “patriotism,” “heritage,” and “security.” Diving into the specific uses of these terms, this article pinpoints the textual winks that have con- structed a civic version of white supremacy over the last few years. Ultimately, this analysis not only builds a theory of rhetorical versatility but also argues that we need more scholarship on the tacit forms of white supremacy. Keywords: white supremacy, Donald Trump, KKK, rhetorical versatility, textual winks, rhetorical climates On Memorial Day weekend in 2017, residents of Texas City, Texas, a small town in Galveston County, found odd pieces of mail in their front yards—flyers from a local Ku Klux Klan (KKK) group. The white supremacist propaganda1 was placed inside small plastic bags and weighted down with Twizzlers and Kit-Kat bars. The actual flyers contained different slogans and text, rhet- oric seeking to recruit new members to the Loyal White Knights’s KKK chapter.

Matias, Ph.D. University of Colorado, Denver Social Equity andSocial Equity Abstract To effectively deliver racially just projects, we must theoretically understand from where emotional resistance to them stems, why this resistance is regularly expressed, and what role it plays in stifling antiracism. This theoretical interpretative paper examines how emotional investment in whiteness recycles normative behaviors of white resistance and unveils how it painfully reinforce the supremacy of whiteness. Using a black feminist approach to emotionality and an atrix Center for the of the Advancement for atrix Center interdisciplinary approach to critical whiteness studies and critical race he M he theory, this paper begins with positing how the emotions of white T resistance are rooted in the shame of revealing a repressed childhood and racial abuse. The concern is twofold. First, what happens to the child, now grown, when confronted with moments that reveal this repressed traumatic past? Second, how do these emotional outbursts, regardless of whether they are intentional or malicious, continue to silence, racially microaggress, and ultimately hurt people of color? Methodologically, this paper employs counterstorytelling to illustrate how these emotional behaviors force an interconnected process of pain—one that gets Privilege Conference Privilege erroneously projected onto people of color rather than therapeutically onto the self.

  • Being an Active Bystander Additional Resources for Educating Yourself and Others
    BEING AN ACTIVE BYSTANDER ADDITIONAL RESOURCES FOR EDUCATING YOURSELF AND OTHERS THE KIRWAN INSTITUTE FOR THE STUDY OF RACE & ETHNICITY | 2017 At the Kirwan Institute, we know that education is vital to challenging racism and all forms of oppression. Addressing everyday bias is a form of educating, as it can open up conversation regarding topics that are often considered taboo or uncomfortable. We invite everyone to educate themselves continually on issues of race, racism, and how to effectively work toward racial equity. To that end, the Kirwan Institute has compiled this list of educational resources that individuals and communities can use to educate themselves and those around them. These educational resources largely focus on the ways in which bias emerges in everyday situations and conversations and how we can speak out in response to bias. These resources are drawn mainly from popular sources and include videos, articles, blogs, and more in order to increase accessibility that may not be present in traditional academic sources. They address a myriad of topics and touch on many different aspects of social identity and marginalization. While this resource list is far from comprehensive, it can be used as a starting point as we strive to not only work against racism but also work toward racial justice and equity.
