Final Dissertation 3 Copyright by Qiuana La’teese Lopez 2012 The Dissertation Committee for Qiuana La’teese Lopez Certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: White Bodies, Black Voices: The Linguistic Construction of Racialized Authenticity in US Film Committee: Patience Epps, Supervisor Lars Hinrichs, Co-Supervisor John Beavers Elaine Chun Megan Crowhurst Lisa Green Sonja Lanehart White Bodies, Black Voices: The Linguistic Construction of Racialized Authenticity in US Film by Qiuana La’teese Lopez, A.A.; B.A.; M.A. Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Texas at Austin May 2012 Dedication For my mom who always believed in me. Rest in Peace. Acknowledgements I would like to begin by thanking the many (and I do mean many) members of my committee for helping me through what someone once called the first unofficial book of my academic career. I first thank Lisa Green who inspired me to start studying black speech. Her book, African American English: A Linguistic Introduction, which I used in the first class I designed and taught, is what started me on this journey. The chapter on African American English in the media encouraged me to look further into the uses of black speech by white characters. I also thank Sonja Lanehart who began to mentor me once Lisa moved to another state. Without her willingness to read rough drafts of conference papers and to travel in order to meet with me at restaurants in between Austin and San Antonio my progress on this project would have stagnated. Both of these women are examples of the type of scholar I aspire to be. I am grateful to both Lars Hinrichs and Patience Epps, who both were added to my committee later in the writing process, but ironically became my co-advisors. When Lars agreed to be an advisor, he brought with him the energy and sociolinguistic knowledge to help motivate me to completion. He also worked hard to get insight from scholars in other areas such as race and film theory by sending them my work and arranging meetings with us. By agreeing to be an advisor, Pattie became a lifesaver. Although she spent a brief time on my committee, her readiness to read my draft and provide comments was invaluable. I am appreciative of John Beavers and Megan Crowhurst for agreeing to be a part of my committee and asking critical questions and expressing theoretical concerns about my research. Lastly and most importantly, there is Elaine Chun. Any words that I use to describe the gratitude I feel toward Elaine do not truly capture it. Her expertise of v mocking practices, on language and race, and on social practices in general, is why I asked her to be a part of my committee. However, the hours she generously spent discussing the characters, theories, and organization of my dissertation went beyond the call of duty. I learned more from those conversations than many of the classes I have taken. A good portion of my dissertation comes as result of answering thought- provoking questions raised by her. I also thank Mary Bucholtz who although not an official member of my committee has greatly influenced my dissertation as well as my professional life. Ian Hancock deserves a special mention for being a part of the early stages of my dissertation committee and for being a good friend. I further extend a sincere “thank you” to my two undergraduate researchers Jacob Sims and Virginia Williams who spent much time watching and transcribing a good amount of the films in my study. Thanks to Lynda de Jong Boudreault, my editor and friend, and to those in the department who have helped me in a myriad of ways. These include but are not limited to: Richard Meier, Leslie Crooks, Benjamin Rapstine, and Gina Pollard. I want to show appreciation to my family and friends. I am grateful to Stacy Chen, Gabriela Garcia, and Emile Destruel-Johnson for coming together to form a brief but useful dissertation reading group, which helped me in the early stages of the writing process. I would also like to mention Sarah Wagner and Kate Shaw Points, the only other sociolinguists in the department and Jessica White-Sustaita, who was the only other student of black language. They were kind enough to attend practice talks and read abstracts and fellowship applications. Additionally, I would like to express the heartfelt gratitude I feel toward Montgomery Stewart whose calming effect always brought me down from the frenzy I would get into during this stressful process. I will also never forget the following people who made my time here in Austin more enjoyable: Justin vi Mcintosh and Eric Campbell who made up the 5-2-5 crew, Adam Hammick, Shawn Chang, Cynthia Weber, Hyun-Jong Hahm, Ramon Guerrero, Udelle Robinson, Madlene Hamilton, Stephanie Villard, Theresa Cole, and Lynn Hou. Finally, I would like to give credit to my mom and dad for helping me realize that I can do anything I set my mind to and to my cousin Tanaya Gainey who sent a text message of encouragement almost everyday during the month before I submitted my dissertation to my committee. I would also like to express my appreciation to George Lopez whose support throughout my entire college experience is immeasurable. vii White Bodies, Black Voices: The Linguistic Construction of Racialized Authenticity in US Film Qiuana La’teese Lopez, Ph.D. The University of Texas at Austin 2012 Co-Supervisors: Patience Epps and Lars Hinrichs By examining the range of stances that white characters in Hollywood films are represented as taking in relation to blackness, this dissertation considers the question of how language becomes ideologically linked to categories of race through linguistic representations. Through an analysis of 59 films (1979-2008) from multiple genres, this study focuses on the linguistic practices of the characters that contribute to larger semiotic practices performed by discernible social types. The first linguistic practice, crossing, plays on the stereotype of the inauthentic, white male, who tries to gain coolness through linguistic representations of African Americans. The second practice, passing, conjures images of blackface because in addition to using linguistic representations of African Americans, the passing characters darken their skin. By demonstrating complex links between language and social meanings such as ideologies about authenticity, identity and racial and gendered stereotypes, these films use linguistic features along with other visual and physical semiotic displays to both construct and comment on black and white authenticity. viii Specifically, crossing was found to comment on disseminated images of the young, white male as lacking a particular type of masculinity and sexuality and overcompensating for them by imitating widely circulating images of the hypermasculine, hypersexual and hyperphysical black male. In addition, it commented on the tendency to read this linguistic practice as inauthentic. Therefore, the social meaning of the white linguistic representations of African Americans used when crossing was found to be related to authenticity or who had the right to use ethnically-marked linguistic features. On the other hand, passing was argued to communicate the ideologies that some whites may have of African Americans, particularly African American men. The linguistic resources utilized in these performances are not used to form identity, but for humor and to distance the character from being read as traditional minstrelsy. By highlighting some of the linguistic strategies that speakers in Hollywood use to (re)produce not only indexical links between linguistic forms and racialized stereotypes but also ideologies about racial authenticity, this dissertation provides an empirical study of some of the semiotic practices that involve the re-indexicalization of minority vernacular resources by members of the majority. ix Table of Contents List of Tables ....................................................................................................... xiii List of Figures ...................................................................................................... xiv List of Illustrations .................................................................................................xv Chapter 1: Introduction ............................................................................................1 1.1 Theoretical Approach ................................................................................2 1.2 Overview of Dissertation ..........................................................................8 Chapter 2: A Review of Authenticity, Performance and Style ................................9 2.1 Style ..........................................................................................................9 2.1.1 First Wave ...................................................................................10 2.1.2 Second Wave ..............................................................................13 2.1.3 Third Wave .................................................................................14 2.2 From identity to practices of identification .............................................15 2.2.1 Performativity and Acts of Identity ............................................15 2. 2.1.2 Acts of Identity ..............................................................16 2.2.2 Performance ................................................................................19

  • Working Against Racism from White Subject Positions: White Anti-Racism, New Abolitionism & Intersectional Anti-White Irish Diasporic Nationalism
    Working Against Racism from White Subject Positions: White Anti-Racism, New Abolitionism & Intersectional Anti-White Irish Diasporic Nationalism By Matthew W. Horton A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Education and the Designated Emphasis in Critical Theory in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Dr. Na’ilah Nasir, Chair Dr. Daniel Perlstein Dr. Keith Feldman Summer 2019 Working Against Racism from White Subject Positions Matthew W. Horton 2019 ABSTRACT Working Against Racism from White Subject Positions: White Anti-Racism, New Abolitionism & Intersectional Anti-White Irish Diasporic Nationalism by Matthew W. Horton Doctor of Philosophy in Education and the Designated Emphasis in Critical Theory University of California, Berkeley Professor Na’ilah Nasir, Chair This dissertation is an intervention into Critical Whiteness Studies, an ‘additional movement’ to Ethnic Studies and Critical Race Theory. It systematically analyzes key contradictions in working against racism from a white subject positions under post-Civil Rights Movement liberal color-blind white hegemony and "Black Power" counter-hegemony through a critical assessment of two major competing projects in theory and practice: white anti-racism [Part 1] and New Abolitionism [Part 2]. I argue that while white anti-racism is eminently practical, its efforts to hegemonically rearticulate white are overly optimistic, tend toward renaturalizing whiteness, and are problematically dependent on collaboration with people of color. I further argue that while New Abolitionism has popularized and advanced an alternative approach to whiteness which understands whiteness as ‘nothing but oppressive and false’ and seeks to ‘abolish the white race’, its ultimately class-centered conceptualization of race and idealization of militant nonconformity has failed to realize effective practice.

  • The Phoenix of Colonial War: Race, the Laws of War, and the ‘Horror on the Rhine’
    The Phoenix of Colonial War: Race, the Laws of War, and the ‘Horror on the Rhine’ Rotem Giladi+* Abstract The paper explores the demise of the ‘colonial war’ category through the employment of French colonial troops, under the 1918 armistice, to occupy the German Rhineland. It traces the prevalence of—and the anxieties underpinning— antebellum doctrine on using ‘Barbarous Forces’ in ‘European’ war. It then records the silence of postbellum scholars on the ‘horror on the Rhine’—orchestrated allegations of rape framed in racialised terms of humanity and the requirements of the law of civilised warfare. Among possible explanations for this silence, the paper follows recent literature that considers this scandal as the embodiment of crises in masculinity, white domination, and European civilisation. These crises, like the scandal itself, expressed antebellum jurisprudential anxieties about the capacity—and implications—of black soldiers being ‘drilled white’. They also deprived postbellum lawyers of the vocabulary necessary to address what they signified: breakdown of the laws of war; evident, self-inflicted European barbarity; and the collapse of international law itself, embodied by the Versailles Diktat treating Germany—as Smuts warned, ‘as we would not treat a kaffir nation’—a colonial ‘object’, as Schmitt lamented. Last, the paper traces the resurgence of ‘colonial war’. It reveals how, at the moment of collapse, in the very instrument signifying it, the category found a new life. The Covenant’s Art.22(5) reasserted control over the colonial object, thus furnishing international lawyers with new vocabulary to address the employment of colonial troops— yet, now, as part of the ‘law of peace’.

  • Responses to Sarcasm in Three Star Trek Movies
    LEXICON Volume 6, Number 1, April 2019, 11-20 Responses to Sarcasm in Three Star Trek Movies Shafira Sherin*, AdiSutrisno English Department, Universitas Gadjah Mada, Indonesia *Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT Sarcasm has been widely studied in various disciplines such as linguistics, psychology, neurology, sociology, and even cross-cultural studies. Its aggravating nature, however, often elicits various responses by the hearer. This study attempts to investigate responses to sarcasm by the characters of three Star Trek “reboot” version movies. It aims to examine responses to sarcasm and to analyze the patterns of responses to sarcastic remarks in relation to the characters’ interpersonal relationship. The data used in this research were taken from the dialogues of the movies, which were categorized into eight classes of responses: laughter, literal, zero response, smile, nonverbal, sarcasm, topic change, and metalinguistic comment. The results show that the most frequent responses conveyed by the characters were literal responses (29.41%), whereas the least frequent responses are laughter (1.96%). There is no pattern in responding to sarcastic remarks in relation to the interpersonal relationship between the interlocutors. However, strangers tend to respond in literal, zero response, and topic change. Meanwhile, close acquaintance tend to give various responses. Keywords: interpersonal relationship; pragmatics; response; sarcasm. INTRODUCTION understood by the parties involved. It can be said that if the sarcastic remarks are expressed in Sarcasm, often mistakenly understood as appropriate circumstances, sarcastic criticisms, no verbal irony, is a figure of speech bearing a semantic matter how negative it may cause, may leave interpretation exactly opposite to its literal positive impacts such as laughter and make the meaning.

Especially in 2019, it is viewed as a highly polarized sector of society sometimes hostile to those on the right side of the aisle. But just because the majority of those who work in Hollywood are liberal, that doesn’t necessarily mean our entertainment follows suit. I argue in my thesis that entertainment in Hollywood is far less partisan than people think it is and moreover, that our entertainment represents plenty of conservative themes and ideas. In doing so, I look at a combination of markets and artistic demands that restrain the politics of those in the entertainment industry and even create space for more conservative productions. Although normally art and markets are thought to be in tension with one another, in this case, they conspire to make our entertainment less one-sided politically.
