A person experiences intersectionality when different aspects of her identity converge in a way that causes uniquely amplified marginalization or oppression. The classic three identities that produce intersectionality experiences in the United States are race, gender, and class, making poor women of color the central figures of intersectionality study. Crenshaw explained that these forces take three main forms: structural, political and representational (“Mapping the Margins” 1243). Intersectionality has always been rhetorical. Structural, political and representational intersectionality are supported in language. The power of language influences our everyday actions. Joining Crenshaw are communication scholars Brenda Allen, Deborah Atwater, and Marsha Houston who recognize that intersectionality is iv enacted in language. In exclusionary rhetorical frames, people perform language in a series of systematic techniques that do not require thought and action. Structural, political, and representational intersectionalities are formed by an exclusionary construction of rhetoric that supports the notion that some people are worthy of speaking into existence the world and some people are not. One of communication scholarship characteristics is that we are attentive to context. For example, when one uses the phrase “our feminism will be intersectional” it is important to consider that intersectional is not the same as diverse or multicultural. In my project, I document the reclaiming of rhetorical intersectionality by women of color and explored the nature of this reclamation. v DEDICATION This is dedicated to my daughters Isis, Bilquisu, and Hajara for illuminating every corner of my work and giving me the constant reminders of why it matters. To my nieces Reina, Mimi, Tori, Zahirah, Majesty, Hannah, Kupcake, and Dodi: may the intersection always uplift you. And most of all to my wonder of a mother who began this journey with me in life but carries me over the finish line in spirit - may you fly forever free. Mommy, our intersection is unbroken; it’s power unmatched. Thank you for teaching me the meaning of Stevie Wonder’s words “true love asks for nothing; her acceptance is the way we pay.” vi ACKNOWLEDGEMENT I would like to acknowledge and express my deep gratitude to the following people: Benjamin Walker - for holding all the broken pieces together in love and partnership; Judah Walker for every tickle, giggle and dinosaur stomp; Joyce Beverly, Danielle Inez Walker, Ruth Coleman and Jocelyn Mallory who were always willing to cheer me on and up. I offer my sincere thanks to the rest of the Beverly and Walker families, the Coleman family, Johnathan White, and the staff of the University of Pittsburgh’s Teaching Center for their encouragement. Finally, many thanks to Autumn Redcross (the dopest dissertation queen for sure) and Dr. Pat Arneson for all of the late evenings and early mornings of feedback and ideas. vii TABLE OF CONTENTS Page Abstract .............................................................................................................................. iv Dedication ............................................................................................................................v Acknowledgement ............................................................................................................. vi Chapter One: An Introduction to Intersectionality ..............................................................1 The Research Approach to This Study ........................................................................6 Key Terms and Scholars ..............................................................................................7 Intersectionality: Historically Situated ......................................................................19 Communication Scholarship on Intersectionality ......................................................28 Chapter Two: Silence and Intersectionality .......................................................................38 Key Terms and Scholars ............................................................................................38 Some Theories of Silence ..........................................................................................43 Examining Silence and Intersectionality ...................................................................50 Chapter Three: Parrhesia and Intersectionality Key Terms and Scholars ............................................................................................76 Some Theories of Parrhesia ......................................................................................80 Examining Parrhesia and Intersectionality ...............................................................87 Reclaiming Rhetorical Intersectionality with Parrhesia ...............................................

This experience is a social one. A person experiences intersectionality when different aspects of her identity converge in a way that causes uniquely amplified marginalization or oppression. The classic three identities that are found to produce intersectionality experiences in the United States are race, gender, and class, making the poor woman of color the central figure of intersectionality study. Identity constructs that contribute to intersectionality might also include sexuality, educational background or country of origin. If intersectionality were represented on a family tree, that tree would have roots of struggle in the social constructs of race, gender and class and other identity constructs that are built to delineate privilege in our society. Narratives of those struggles intertwined and grew into one strong tree that gave rise to scholars and activists who have worked on issues of racial, economic and misogynist oppression for centuries. Many of these scholars and activists have contributed so much that they now have their own branches. The branches include the theoretical work and activism of Sojourner Truth, Ida B. Wells-Barnett, Alice Walker, Toni Morrison, Toni Cade Bambara, Patricia Hill Collins, Paula Giddings, Gloria Hull, Cherie Moraga, and Gloria Anzaldua, and Angela Davis. The branch instituted by legal scholar and critical race theorist Kimberlé Williams Crenshaw guides this project. Crenshaw was the first person

  • What Does It Mean to Make-Up the Mind (Οὕτω Διανοεῖσθε)? Justin Murphy
    parrhesia 29 · 2018 · 163-189 what does it mean to make-up the mind (οὕτω διανοεῖσθε)? justin murphy Under what conditions can thought and speech participate meaningfully in sys- temic political transformations? In my view, two bodies of late twentieth-century thought stand out as the most advanced efforts to answer this question. Gilles De- leuze and Michel Foucault, in their own registers and of course with very differ- ent accents, both suggest substantial but complicated roles thinking and speaking might have to play in any viable future project of emancipatory politics. Given the idealistic associations and connotations of such terms as thinking and speaking, it is no surprise that both figures have been charged with similar crimes: individual- ism, aestheticism, or escapism, all of which are typically implied to render their bodies of work unhelpful for projects of organized, collective political change.1 In the present historical moment of the so-called age of information, we are now in a better position than ever to understand the ways in which mere thought and speech are unable to generate politically significant emancipatory dynamics. In modern global capitalism, it has never seemed more clear that what is called free- dom of speech and the public exchange of ideas is perfectly consistent with the perpetuity and even intensification of oppressive institutional dynamics. Yet, I wish to suggest that in this rightful disillusionment with mere thought and speech lies an opportunity for improving our understanding of the unique conditions under which certain types of thought and speech might be keys to unlocking new forms of emancipatory politics today, in the context of what Deleuze called “con- trol societies.”2 If it is true that Foucault and Deleuze are two of the most advanced thinkers of this question—and yet even they remain uncleared of charges relating to political triviality—then it would seem that the surest way to advance the question would be to begin at the edges of where they left off.

  • Critical Inquiry As Virtuous Truth-Telling: Implications of Phronesis and Parrhesia ______
    ______________________________________________________________________________ Critical Inquiry as Virtuous Truth-Telling: Implications of Phronesis and Parrhesia ______________________________________________________________________________ Austin Pickup, Aurora University Abstract This article examines critical inquiry and truth-telling from the perspective of two comple- mentary theoretical frameworks. First, Aristotelian phronesis, or practical wisdom, offers a framework for truth that is oriented toward ethical deliberation while recognizing the contingency of practical application. Second, Foucauldian parrhesia calls for an engaged sense of truth-telling that requires risk from the inquirer while grounding truth in the com- plexity of human discourse. Taken together, phronesis and parrhesia orient inquirers to- ward intentional truth-telling practices that resist simplistic renderings of criticality and overly technical understandings of research. This article argues that truly critical inquiry must spring from the perspectives of phronesis and parrhesia, providing research projects that aim at virtuous truth-telling over technical veracity with the hope of contributing to ethical discourse and social praxis. Keywords: phronesis, praxis, parrhesia, critical inquiry, truth-telling Introduction The theme of this special issue considers the nature of critical inquiry, specifically methodological work that remains committed to explicit goals of social justice and the good. One of the central concerns of this issue is that critical studies have lost much of their meaning due to a proliferation of the term critical in educational scholarship. As noted in the introduction to this issue, much contemporary work in education research that claims to be critical may be so in name only, offering but methodological techniques to engage in critical work; techniques that are incapable of inter- vening in both the epistemological and ontological formations of normative practices in education.

Digital Parrhesia 2.0: Moving beyond Deceptive Communications Strategies in the Digital World François Allard-Huver Sorbonne University, France Nicholas Gilewicz University of Pennsylvania, USA ABSTRACT Deceptive communications strategies are further problematized in digital space. Because digitally mediated communication easily accommodates pseudonymous and anonymous speech, digital ethos depends upon finding the proper balance between the ability to create pseudonymous and anonymous online presences and the public need for transparency in public speech. Analyzing such content requires analyzing media forms and the honesty of speakers themselves. This chapter applies Michel Foucault’s articulation of parrhesia—the ability to speak freely and the concomitant public duties it requires of speakers—to digital communication.

Hoffman* Lewis University The purpose of this paper is to explore the difficulty many critically prepared educators and leaders experience when wanting to translate their social justice knowledge into everyday social justice practices. Even though these individuals are critically conscious and want to critically act, many become overwhelmed with the enormity of the neoliberal crisis, tend to fear actually acting against or speaking up in the face of injustice, and may become cynical in terms of even believing in the possibility of any type of educational and social transformation. To address this reticence, the postmodern and posthuman concepts of liquid modernity (Bauman, 2006, 2007) material feminisms (Barad, 2007,2008), care of the self and parrhesia (Foucault, 2001, 2005, 2011) were presented to educational leadership doctoral students as ideas to explicitly challenge their issues of fear and cynicism.

  • A Case of Parrhesia: Courage in Discourse and Its Effects
    Original Article A CASE OF PARRHESIA: COURAGE IN DISCOURSE AND ITS EFFECTS Thiago Barbosa SOARES* ▪ ABSTRACT: This article aims to analyze the meanings of parrhesia and its effects in a statement by a Brazilian federal representative, that breaks with hegemonic discourse. More precisely, we describe and interpret how the production and emergence of parrhesia functions to configure meanings in a statement constituted and developed within the vote regarding the impeachment of President Dilma Rousseff’s mandate in 2016, delivered by Jean Wyllys. In this way, considering the postulate of Discourse Analysis, developed by Pêcheux, in which subject and meaning are constructed simultaneously in the historical movement, we hold that parrhesia, as Foucault observes it in his final works, produces, simultaneously, certain meanings and subjects circulating in the social space. Given this conceptual framework, we employ the theoretical and methodological tools of Discourse Analysis to investigate how truth-telling is constructed and what its effects are on the treadmill of resistance against discursive hegemony. ▪ KEYWORDS: discourse analysis; parrhesia; Jean Wyllys. Introduction A ‘discourse’ is not an infrastructure; nor is it another word for ‘ideology’. In fact, it is, rather, the opposite, despite what is often claimed either in writing or by word of mouth. (VEYNE, 2008, p.28) Paul Veyne is right in saying what discourse is not, in order to dispel certain existing interpretations about discourse. Likewise, eschewing generic readings of discourse is desirable and even necessary in the scope of our object of investigation, since the exercise of parrhesia - which “implies speech equality, the right to speak”, that is, isegory -, as understood by Michel Foucault, it is more than truth-telling, it is an ethical act whose implication is the conjuration of the effects of the discourse.

  • Parrhesia 31 · 2019 Parrhesia 31 · 2019 · 1-16
    parrhesia 31 · 2019 parrhesia 31 · 2019 · 1-16 gaston bachelard and contemporary philosophy massimiliano simons, jonas rutgeerts, anneleen masschelein and paul cortois1 There are philosophers whose name sounds familiar, but who very few people know in more than a vague sense. And there are philosophers whose footprints are all over the recent history of philosophy, but who themselves have retreated somewhat in the background. Gaston Bachelard (1884-1962) is a bit of both. With- out doubt, he was one of the most prominent French philosophers in the first half of the 20th century, who wrote over twenty books, covering domains as diverse as philosophy of science, poetry, art and metaphysics. His ideas profoundly influ- enced a wide array of authors including Georges Canguilhem, Gilbert Simondon, Roland Barthes, Michel Foucault, Bruno Latour and Pierre Bourdieu. Up until the 1980s, Bachelard’s work was widely read by philosophers, scientists, literary theo- rists, artists, and even wider audiences and in his public appearances he incar- nated one of the most iconic and fascinating icons of a philosopher. And yet, surprisingly, in recent years the interest in Bachelard’s theoretical oeuvre seems to have somewhat waned. Apart from some recent attempts to revive his thinking, the philosopher’s oeuvre is rarely discussed outside specialist circles, often only available for those able to read French.2 In contemporary Anglo-Saxon philosophy the legacy of Bachelard seems to consist mainly in his widely known book Poetics of Space. While some of Bachelard’s contemporaries, like Georges Canguilhem or Gilbert Simondon (see Parrhesia, issue 7), who were profoundly influenced by Bachelard, have been rediscovered, the same has not happened for Bachelard’s philosophical oeuvre.
