The Moore's Ford Lynching Reenactment
This essay offers a close reading of the 2008 reenactment of the 1946 Moore's Ford Lynching of four African Americans in Walton County, Georgia. Throughout this fieldwork, we were ethnographically positioned as co-performative witnesses, both “a part of” and “apart from,” mirroring the tensions between the intellectual remove of much rhetorical scholarship and the embodied engagement and understanding of performance studies. A complex and sophist…
Race lynching and Christian Evangelicalism
This essay locates the performance of ritual lynching within the white Christian Evangelical worldview that predominated among members of the white supremacist community responsible for lynching African‐Americans. The emergence of Christian Evangelicalism is connected to Anglo‐Celtic emigration in the eighteenth century to the backcountry of the American South and the Appalachians. Through a fusion of cultural folkways with faith centered on the …
"Disciplining "Sextext
This essay is a critical interrogation of disciplinary responses to Tom Nakayama and Fred Corey's 1997 Text and Performance Quarterly essay, "Sextext." Disciplinary responses to the essay suggest strong resistance to queer theory as a "legitimate" intellectual and critical framework. By reading the responses to "Sextext" through the lens of queer theory, and by offering a political reading of conventional studies of sexual representation, this es…

In particular, I discuss the manner in which this television narrative appropriates body rhetorics and narrative agency from traditionally masculinist metanarratives in the horror and mystery genres. Moreover, I examine how the fictional characters negotiate the politics of feminism and p…
