A survey of HBCU stakeholders at the 2023 White House Initiative on HBCUs was conducted to identify high-impact areas linked to this turnover, focusing on areas critical to the advancement and sustainment of HBCUs through the eyes of HBCU stakehold…
Spatiotemporal solidarity discourses and practices in Islam
This study used a multidisciplinary approach to map Islamic solidarity within spacetime through tawhidic and embodied epistemologies, using sociological theories and the interplay between collective actions and identity. Through the five pillars, Islam fosters solidarity, enforcing Ummah and brotherhood . Ummah transcends spacetime, encompassing past and future, integrating social responsibilities with divine obligations. Brotherhood is rooted in…
Gender and STEM Education
An effective way to increase the participation of historically excluded students in engineering education is through informal programming that covers science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). This study is part of a broader investigation conducted by Fletcher aimed at evaluating the programs offered by the National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE) as part of the Summer Engineering Experience for Kids (SEEK) program at different s…
Discursive practices of the performative theory of solidarity discourse
Regional variation in the syntactic use of qad reflexes
In Classical Arabic (CA), qad, a discourse particle has been extensively studied. However, the linguistic behavior of the different reflexes of the particle qad in Saudi varieties (SVs), namely gid, gīd, jid, and dzid, has not been studied. Due to this lack, the current study, as primary exploratory, aimed to describe the syntactic uses of qad reflexes in SVs. In doing so, interviews were conducted in which a structured questionnaire was used wit…
Controversy and Discourse
Controversial topics make discourse complicated and hard to construct. However, through selected linguistic tools, the negativity of controversies can be subdued and reconstructed successfully. In this study, Halliday’s Transitivity System and van Leeuwen’s role allocation were utilized to show how speakers construct social actors in such a discourse to experientially reconstruct controversial topics without evoking negative feelings or creating …
Interpersonal rhetoric of attitude in news
Drawing on principles of Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) and Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) the proposed study examined and compared the attitudinal positioning of both CNN and Al-Jazeera English (AJE) concerning Iran’s Nuclear Program (INP). The paper has employed the appraisal framework ( Martin & White 2005 ) to reveal the different subtypes of attitude , i.e., affect , judgment , and appreciation , which have been encoded in the sele…
Towards a performative theory of solidarity discourse
The present study attempts to sketch a theoretical model entitled “a Performative Theory of Solidarity Discourse” to analyze solidarity as a discourse. The data of this study is selected speeches that were delivered in the 2016 AIPAC Conference by seven influential American politicians. This theory puts forward eight assumptions and six hypotheses. These assumptions along with the hypotheses of this theory viewed solidarity discourse (SD) as perf…
