  • Cancel Culture: Posthuman Hauntologies in Digital Rhetoric and the Latent Values of Virtual Community Networks
    CANCEL CULTURE: POSTHUMAN HAUNTOLOGIES IN DIGITAL RHETORIC AND THE LATENT VALUES OF VIRTUAL COMMUNITY NETWORKS By Austin Michael Hooks Heather Palmer Rik Hunter Associate Professor of English Associate Professor of English (Chair) (Committee Member) Matthew Guy Associate Professor of English (Committee Member) CANCEL CULTURE: POSTHUMAN HAUNTOLOGIES IN DIGITAL RHETORIC AND THE LATENT VALUES OF VIRTUAL COMMUNITY NETWORKS By Austin Michael Hooks A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements of the Degree of Master of English The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga Chattanooga, Tennessee August 2020 ii Copyright © 2020 By Austin Michael Hooks All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT This study explores how modern epideictic practices enact latent community values by analyzing modern call-out culture, a form of public shaming that aims to hold individuals responsible for perceived politically incorrect behavior via social media, and cancel culture, a boycott of such behavior and a variant of call-out culture. As a result, this thesis is mainly concerned with the capacity of words, iterated within the archive of social media, to haunt us— both culturally and informatically. Through hauntology, this study hopes to understand a modern discourse community that is bound by an epideictic framework that specializes in the deconstruction of the individual’s ethos via the constant demonization and incitement of past, current, and possible social media expressions. The primary goal of this study is to understand how these practices function within a capitalistic framework and mirror the performativity of capital by reducing affective human interactions to that of a transaction.

  • DIRECTING the Disorder the CFR Is the Deep State Powerhouse Undoing and Remaking Our World
    DEEP STATE DIRECTING THE Disorder The CFR is the Deep State powerhouse undoing and remaking our world. 2 by William F. Jasper The nationalist vs. globalist conflict is not merely an he whole world has gone insane ideological struggle between shadowy, unidentifiable and the lunatics are in charge of T the asylum. At least it looks that forces; it is a struggle with organized globalists who have way to any rational person surveying the very real, identifiable, powerful organizations and networks escalating revolutions that have engulfed the planet in the year 2020. The revolu- operating incessantly to undermine and subvert our tions to which we refer are the COVID- constitutional Republic and our Christian-style civilization. 19 revolution and the Black Lives Matter revolution, which, combined, are wreak- ing unprecedented havoc and destruction — political, social, economic, moral, and spiritual — worldwide. As we will show, these two seemingly unrelated upheavals are very closely tied together, and are but the latest and most profound manifesta- tions of a global revolutionary transfor- mation that has been under way for many years. Both of these revolutions are being stoked and orchestrated by elitist forces that intend to unmake the United States of America and extinguish liberty as we know it everywhere. In his famous “Lectures on the French Revolution,” delivered at Cambridge University between 1895 and 1899, the distinguished British historian and states- man John Emerich Dalberg, more com- monly known as Lord Acton, noted: “The appalling thing in the French Revolution is not the tumult, but the design. Through all the fire and smoke we perceive the evidence of calculating organization.

  • Quadrennial Diplomacy and Development Review 2015
    ENDURING LEADERSHIP IN A DYNAMIC WORLD Quadrennial Diplomacy and Development Review | 2015 This QDDR is dedicated to the memory of the brave men and women of the State Department and the U.S. Agency for International Development—both American citizens and foreign nationals—who have given their lives while in the service of the United States overseas. We honor their sacrifice, which has helped make the world more peaceful, prosperous, and secure. MESSAGE FROM SECRETARY KERRY Today’s international landscape is more complex than ever before. The challenges we face are enormous, and so are the opportunities. They require us to keep faith with institutions like the State Department and USAID – with America – to ensure our ability to do the big things required to protect our interests and promote our values. And that means providing our diplomats and development professionals with both the willpower and the tools to accomplish the impossible. I want the QDDR to be the blueprint for the next generation of American diplomacy. I want our diplomats and development professionals to have the technology and know-how to confront both the challenges and the John Kerry opportunities. That’s why I launched the second QDDR United States Secretary of State last April. In the months that followed, hundreds of our offices and posts worldwide have engaged in exercises, focus groups, consultations, drafting and editing to help define and shape this document. From the outset, I asked our teams to avoid making this exercise all things for all people. A very smart Foreign Service officer told me when I first got here, “If everything’s important, nothing’s important.” So this QDDR does not seek to be everything to everybody.

  • Statement of the Honorable J. Brett Blanton Architect of the Capitol
    Statement of The Honorable J. Brett Blanton Architect of the Capitol Architect of the Capitol Fiscal Year 2021 Appropriations Statement before the Subcommittee on Legislative Branch, Committee on Appropriations, United States House of Representatives March 5, 2020 Chairman Ryan, Ranking Member Herrera Beutler, and members of the subcommittee, I appreciate the opportunity to present the Architect of the Capitol’s (AOC) Fiscal Year (FY) 2021 budget request of $798 million. Last month, I was honored to join this notable institution as the 12th Architect of the Capitol. In the first few weeks of leading this organization, I met with my executives and staff to better understand the strengths and weaknesses of the agency. I am quite impressed with those that I have met thus far. I believe the AOC has all the necessary elements to succeed in its mission of serving Congress and the Supreme Court, preserving America’s Capitol and inspiring memorable experiences. I honestly feel the best is yet to come for the Architect of the Capitol. The agency I inherited has much to be proud of. Massive, once-in-a-generation renovations of exterior facades, interior spaces and system infrastructure are occurring across campus. Industry-leading changes to energy production and efficiency are being realized through the Capitol Power Plant’s cogeneration system and several Energy Saving Performance Contracts. These transformation energy projects will maximize the use of appropriated funds and have the potential of reducing the Capitol Campus’ energy consumption by upwards of 50 percent by 2025. The Architect of the Capitol provides exceptional support VIEW OF THE WEST FRONT OF THE U.S.

  • The Capitol Building
    CAPITOL VISITOR CENTER TEACHERTEACHER LLESSONESSON PLANLAN The Capitol BuildiNg Introduction The Capitol is among the most architecturally impressive and symbolically important buildings in the world. The Senate and the House of Representatives have met here for more than two centuries. Begun in 1793, the Capitol has been built, burnt, rebuilt, extended, and restored; today, it stands as a monument not only to its builders but also to the American people and their government. As George Washington said, public buildings in the Capitol city “in size, form, and elegance, should look beyond the present day.”1 This activity features images of the U.S. Capitol building — architectural plans and artistic renderings from its original design and subsequent expansion. Examining these images, students engage in class discussion and individual reflection, considering how a building itself might serve as a symbol and monument. Then, they draft images that capture their own interpretation of how a Capitol building should look. While intended for 8th grade students, the lesson can be adapted for other grade levels. 1 The Writings of George Washington from the Original Manuscript Sources, 1745–1799. John C. Fitzpatrick, Editor., Philadelphia, March 8, 1792. 1 TEACHER LESSON PLAN: THE CAPITOL BUILDING CAPITOL VISITOR CENTER TEACHER LESSON PLAN Estimated Time One to two class sessions National Standards National Standards for Civics and Government Content Standards, grades 5–8 II — What are the Foundations of the American Political System (D.1) United

  • 'Cancel Culture' Doesn't Stifle Debate, but It Does Challenge the Old Order Billy Bragg
    'Cancel culture' doesn't stifle debate, but it does challenge the old order Billy Bragg Speech is only free when everyone has a voice – that’s why young people are angry Outside Broadcasting House in London, the BBC has erected a statue to one of its former employees, George Orwell. The author leans forward, hand on hip, as if to make a telling point. Carved into the wall beside him is a quote from the preface of Animal Farm: “If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.” It’s a snappy slogan that fits neatly into a tweet, but whenever I walk past this effigy of the English writer that I most admire, it makes me cringe. Surely the author of Nineteen Eighty-Four would understand that people don’t want to hear that 2+2=5? For Orwell’s quote is not a defence of liberty; it’s a demand for licence, and has become a foundational slogan for those who wilfully misconstrue one for the other. Over the past decade, the right to make inflammatory statements has become a hot button issue for the reactionary right, who have constructed tropes such as political correctness and virtue signalling to enable them to police the limits of social change while portraying themselves as victims of an organised assault on liberty itself. The latest creation in their war against accountability is “cancel culture”, an ill-defined notion that takes in corporate moves to recognise structural racism, the toppling of statues, social media bullying, public shaming and other diverse attempts to challenge the status quo.
