The Personal Is Political: Body Politics in a Trump World: Personal/Public Scholarship, cartea 7

Editat de Christine Salkin Davis, Jonathan L. Crane
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 29 iul 2020
In the wake of Donald J. Trump’s unprecedented victory and his administration’s multi-pronged attacks on an array of vulnerable populations, a diverse collection of scholars was asked to document the ways in which marginalized peoples have experienced the first years of Trump mayhem. The essays in this volume ask us to think through tough narratives of exclusion, exile, and pain. The challenge in this book is to represent the unrepresentable, to document in chilling detail how Trump, his allies in government, and his unshakeable base have weaponized the culture war and threatened the ideals of the Republic. This book invites us to experience the scarifying perspective of the marginalized Other, to remember to honor all our most human stories that, woven together, make up the collective ‘us’; the collective ‘U.S.’ The editors also hope this collection suggests a way forward, a way to defeat American nativism and a way to end the war on those of us who are, on this sad day, our nation’s public enemies.

Recenzii

"A compelling collection of chilling personal narratives that reveal, resist, and, ultimately, raise the awareness, understanding, empathy, hope, and social justice activism needed to end the discrimination, marginalization, and oppression experienced by diverse bodies during the Trump era." – Lawrence R. Frey, National Communication Association Distinguished Scholar, Professor, University of Colorado Boulder
"Davis and Crane have edited a broad range of experience across contexts, identities, and issues. In the ‘Trump World,’ we have reached the time when our words and their meaning are viscerally located and experienced in our bodies, and this book escorts readers through a tour of these loci. As readers, we are challenged to stay present through the discomfort of evidence of political dismembering described and expressed through bodies impacted during the era and rabid discourse of Donald J. Trump. The book dares us to move beyond discursive tropes about the personal nature of the political, while we are faced with the affective proof in our own responsive bodies as we read this collection of narratives. It forces us to face how politics painfully impact us through the vulnerable body when hegemonic oppression is given voice through someone like Trump." – Sarah Amira de la Garza, Associate Professor and Southwest Borderlands Scholar, Arizona State University
"As I write, darkness has descended upon our nation, as yet another African American man has been executed by police sworn to serve and protect our citizens. Widespread protests have erupted in response, all in the midst of a deadly pandemic. President Trump’s predictably bellicose response has been to threaten citizens exercising First Amendment rights. Into our divided, discordant world, this book shines a welcome new light, offering new ways of thinking about the origins and potential trajectories of this strange moment in our history. Here’s hoping that some thoughtful narratives and counter-narratives can help, in some small way, to save us from ourselves." – Christopher N. Poulos, Professor, University of North Carolina Greensboro
