In Empowered Sarah Banet-Weiser examines the deeply entwined relationship between popular feminism and popular misogyny as it plays out in advertising, online and multimedia platforms, and nonprofit and commercial campaigns. Examining feminist discourses that emphasize self-confidence, body positivity, and individual achievement alongside violent misogynist phenomena such as revenge porn, toxic geek masculinity, and men's rights movements, Banet-Weiser traces how popular feminism and popular misogyny are co-constituted. From Black Girls Code and the Always #LikeAGirl campaign to GamerGate and the 2016 presidential election, Banet-Weiser shows how popular feminism is met with a misogynistic backlash of mass harassment, assault, and institutional neglect. In so doing, she contends that popular feminism's problematic commitment to visibility limits its potential and collective power.

With the election of Barack Obama, the idea that American society had become postracial—that is, race was no longer a main factor in influencing and structuring people's lives—took hold in public consciousness, increasingly accepted by many. The contributors to Racism Postrace examine the concept of postrace and its powerful history and allure, showing how proclamations of a postracial society further normalize racism and obscure structural antiblackness. They trace expressions of postrace over and through a wide variety of cultural texts, events, and people, from sports (LeBron James's move to Miami), music (Pharrell Williams's “Happy”), and television (The Voice and HGTV) to public policy debates, academic disputes, and technology industries. Outlining how postrace ideologies confound struggles for racial justice and equality, the contributors open up new critical avenues for understanding the powerful cultural, discursive, and material conditions that render postrace the racial project of our time.

Growing up in a strict home in Germany, I couldn't wait to leave the country at age 18 with my new American husband. Germany held the reminders and constraints of an authoritarian father, and I desperately needed to be free of rules and expectations. Little could I have known what life would be like in the States, where I quickly found myself stuck in a trailer in South Carolina, surrounded by pine trees with no one else around other than a controlling, alcoholic spouse.
Fast forward five years. Happily divorced and free from a dominating male presence, I moved to a new state, finally able to explore life as an independent woman. Along the way, I was fortunate to encounter several men who turned into mentors, supporters, best friends, and even one soulmate. However, there was no dodging the male rule for long. As I stepped into corporate management, I quickly started to understand a woman's expected role in a setting dominated by men. It was an environment I had been trying to escape from since childhood. I realized escape was not the solution, only a deliberate avoidance. I wanted to become an active participant in the fight for women's rights.
For me, it meant quitting my corporate job in 2018 to start writing DICKOTOMY, A Dickless Memoir. DICKOTOMY showcases some of the male characters women encounter in all aspects of their lives. The book--and the men in it--became the inspiration for the DICKLESS movement.
------------------------------------------------
What defines you? Have you ever given this any thought?
In this memoir, I wondered if my strict childhood, my naivety as an immigrant, my insecurities in standing up for myself and others, or my struggles to find my voice in corporate America were my defining moments. But then it struck me:
Who defines you? was a much better question to ask. In my case, was it Daddy Dearest, who made all the rules, or The Alcoholic, who controlled my every move, or The Narcissistic Bully, who only cared about himself, or The Distrusting CEO, who heard what I had to say, but who didn't listen? And what about The Guardian, who helped rebuild my trust in men, The Boys, who taught me about unconditional love, or The Soulmate, who simply let me be me?
DICKOTOMY acknowledges the importance of the Ricks and Dicks in every woman's life. Ultimately, it is up to us to decide who we truly are.

Автор: Weiser Frans Название: False Documents: Inter-American Cultural History, Literature, and the Lost Decade (1975-1992) ISBN: 0814255752 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780814255759 Издательство: Неизвестно Рейтинг: Цена: 50890.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: False Documents: Inter-American Cultural History, Literature, and the Lost Decade (1975-1992) examines the "return of history" that swept across the Americas during the final two decades of the Cold War as Latin American nations redemocratized and US multiculturalism responded to the conservative bicentennial backlash. Revising the predominantly economic and isolationist accounts of the era, Frans Weiser examines the work of journalists and academics from Hispanic America, Brazil, and the United States who adopted fiction to document recent national discord, repositioning challenges to self-determination in a postnational context. After deconstructing economic accounts of the "two Americas" model of the hemisphere, including the lost decade (1981-1992) and the "end of history" (1975-1992), Weiser considers six case studies during the same period that reach very different conclusions by drawing on cultural history, including works by Tom s Eloy Mart nez, Laura Antillano, Ana Maria Machado, Silviano Santiago, John Updike, and Jay Cantor. In order to expose how governments controlled and misrepresented recent events, these writers created false documents, or fake historical texts, that presented themselves as legitimate eyewitness accounts or archival documents. Weiser establishes how this alternative to postmodern irony more effectively galvanized citizen responses. As the first book to contextualize the parallel, hemispheric evolutions of postwar literary criticism and cultural historiography, False Documents responds to the methodological impasse between Latin American and American studies as well as the antagonism between history and literature, arguing that collaboration and synthesis are particularly vital at a moment when the humanities is increasingly under attack.
