“…This particular (hi)story is certainly different from those of many Latin@s in the USA -and Spanish speakers more generally -which are often marked by that racialization, marginality, and even literal exclusion from participation in their societies through different generations (see Anzaldúa 1987;Moreman and Persona Non Grata 2011).…”

Going ‘global,’ (re)locating privilege: a journey into the borders of whiteness, foreignness, and performativity

In this article I draw on my personal experience of partially forced repositioning as a way to advance our understanding of the theoretical and practical contours of whiteness, foreignness, and performativity. In particular, I consider how specific aspects of our identities can get strategically redefined depending on the context where they operate, thus placing the transposed body at a constant risk of being excluded from certain privileges. I also bring foreignness to light as an organizing principle that (re)creates places for belonging and marginalization as it interacts with other dimensions of identity. From here, I propose to emphasize the incontrollable aspects of experience and thus expose the strategic attempts to protect privilege and also, and maybe more importantly, the limitations of such strategies. At a broader level, with this contribution I hope to turn a self-reflexive eye on the politics of language and/as method, and how different assumptions and expectations for particular kinds of writing styles may affect the possibilities for those whose first language is not English to make our voices heard.

“…This sort of reflexivity, which frequently starts by locating the researcher in relation to the researched group, has been applied to a number of areas. For example, Moreman and Non Grata (2011) talk about the experience of navigating education while being undocumented, Moreira and Diversi (2011) explore racism in higher education and Ehrenreich (2000) discusses social class in her autoethnography of maids-to-order. Disability and illness have also featured prominently (Green, 2002; Ronai, 1996; Tillmann, 1996) as well as discussions of age and ageism (McNichol, 2018; Rambo, 2005).…”

The maroon boxer briefs: exploring erotic reflexivity in interview research

This article addresses both participants’ and researchers’ erotic arousal during in-depth interviewing and explores how these emotions can be both productive and informative. I briefly overview the scarce literature available and propose a new framework where arousal is considered as playful. I provide three cases from my research where erotic arousal was informative. These reflect on participants’ and researcher’s arousal through interview transcripts and research journal. I suggest that ignoring these instances overlooks important sources of information about the interview setting and propose ways in which these emotions can be included as informative insights in the analysis of research. Throughout this article, I also reflect on the ways in which erotic arousal is embodied and, thus, not always rational, and the limits of reflexivity. Finally, I conclude by acknowledging some of the complications of erotic arousal before suggesting its benefits.

“…from my rhetorical analyses, so I can create "theories in the flesh." Latina/o communication studies scholars(Calafell, 2007;Moreira & Diversi, 2011;Moreman & Persona Non Grata, 2011) invoke autobiographical "theories of the flesh," which "means one where the physical realities of our lives--our skin color, the land or concrete we grew up on, our sexual longing--all fuse to create a politic born out of necessity. Here we attempt to bridge the contradictions of our experience"(Anzaldúa and Moraga in Calafell, 2007, p. 7), to participate, like this thesis, in the political project of social transformation.…”

This study explores as an ideograph in the law and everyday life through an analysis of private and public texts and embodied acts. The purpose of this study was to engage intersectionally as a power structure with wide-ranging influence over society to locate resistance. Utilizing rhetorical methods, this work examined archives and repertoires through an autohistoria of a queer Chicano male before the passage of Proposition 8, the California Constitutional Amendment that banned for LGBTQ couples. By exploring through metaphors and performative writing, this study constructs in the tradition of the shaman to present new possibilities for and queer theory. the love, support, and unabashed courage of many individuals. First, I would like to thank my husband, Juan Carlos Perez, for everything that has come, everything that is, and everything that will soon come to be. You are my angel. There are not enough worthy words to describe our bond, so I hope our readers will feel it within these pages instead. Second, this work would not have been possible without the support of the Communication Studies department at San José State University. To my advisor, Kathleen McConnell, your voice, sweat, blood, and tears are here with me on these pages. I hope our readers will hear our chorus. To David Terry, thank you for bringing me back to performance (I am healed), and I hope you will never forget our performance of together. To Rona Halualani, your guidance, encouragement, and feedback since my undergraduate days have led me here and will continue to lead me forward. To Deanna Fassett, how can I properly thank the person who brought me into my discipline and always pushed me forward even when I didn't believe in myself? I literally wouldn't be on this page without you. To my family and friends, everything I do is to tell our stories of love and triumph in the face of unyielding oppression and injustice. Thank you for loving me enough to attend my wedding. With this thesis, my ceremony gains many more guests, but I will always cherish the memories you created with Juan and I. Gracias.
