This essay examines this significant period of settler colonialism in Texas through two novels, written 150 years apart: Augusta Evans’s 1855 novel, Inéz: A Tale of the Alamo, and Emma Pérez’s 2009 novel, Forgetting the Alamo, or, Blood Memory. Drawing on Richard Flores’s and Marita Sturken’s conceptions of cultural memory, the essay illustrates how the novels challenge colonialist ideologies by critiquing the Catholic Church, the settlement and claiming of the Texas/Mexico borderlands, and the conflicted gender and sexual relations and privileging of heteropatriarchy that reinforce the settler colonial structure. In so doing, Evans’s and Pérez’s novels produce distinct gendered cultural memories that challenge popular conceptions of 1830s, male-centric versions of Texas history. Though Evans and Pérez write from different subject positions, each author reveals how, in literature, cultural memory allows for an alternative narration of history that privileges voices often rendered silent in the historical record. The gendered cultural memories illuminated in these novels disrupt dominant normative assumptions about history and historical events by drawing attention to the active process of forgetting that erases ethnic Mexican women’s experiences.","PeriodicalId":46007,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers-A Journal of Women Studies","volume":"43 1","pages":"62 - 87"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2022-04-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48422207","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

I treat VBACs as a dense site of feminist desire that has been produced by what I call the feminist birthing industry. I argue that undergirding contemporary feminist investment in VBACs is not simply the contention that birthers should have access to births that they desire. Instead, VBAC advocacy is often underpinned by a sense that birth is a psychically transformative process only if it is embodied and experienced in a certain way, and that it is the vagina that is the site of maternal transformation. The investment in the vagina as a space of radical possibility that is fundamentally linked to projects of self-making and self-transformation unfolds in a moment where feminism— thanks also to the critical work of queer theory, trans studies, and Black studies—has largely disavowed a politics that tethers the feminine to genitalia, and that invests in the vagina as a site of authentic femininity. My interest, then, is in exploring how and why birth remains a space where feminist advocacy remains distinctively and peculiarly vaginally-oriented, linking the vagina to self-fulfillment.","PeriodicalId":46007,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers-A Journal of Women Studies","volume":"43 1","pages":"169 - 190"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2022-04-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43414262","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Through “In Her Shoes,” we argue, many women explicitly gave voice to topics and experiences that were common historically (and recently) but rarely recognized both by Irish society and by scholars. These themes center bodily experiences, such as bleeding and descriptions of pain; the notion of hiding alongside being on display or under surveillance; and containment and mobility. Our investigation thus provides evidence for the pervasiveness and importance of the body in Irish women’s history and current lives. Narratives also underscore how finding a voice through “In Her Shoes” was accompanied by camaraderie with and support from other women, particularly family members across generations. This article thus demonstrates how movements such as “In Her Shoes” not only used storytelling to convince voters to support Repeal but also allowed women, with the support of others, to give voice to hidden historical and contemporary realities and thus contest the silence and shame that has dominated Irish society for so long.","PeriodicalId":46007,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers-A Journal of Women Studies","volume":"43 1","pages":"139 - 168"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2022-04-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49468718","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Basso","doi":"10.1353/fro.2022.0011","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1353/fro.2022.0011","url":null,"abstract":"Abstract:Since the 2014 World Cup, “eh puto,” a soccer chant used by Mexican fans, has received an enormous amount of international attention. Critics condemn it as a homophobic epithet equivalent to “fag,” while defenders maintain it is comparable to calling someone stupid or cowardly. Media coverage and scholarly discussion almost exclusively centers on this limited framing of the debate, reinforcing the stereotype that Mexican culture is more anti-gay than the United States and other Western nations. This article takes a different approach and uses the chant as an opportunity to explore the influence of political economy on gender arrangements and social hierarchies, including sexualities as sites of situated meaning in Mexico. We theorize the masculinist and homophobic valences of “eh puto” as a reaction to and relational dimension of men’s experiences of neoliberalism in Mexico. The Mexican band Molotov provided one of the best-known responses to post-NAFTA inequality with their hit, “Puto.” In 2003, working-class male soccer fans, who embodied a masculinity we describe as “desmadre,” created the “eh puto” chant, directing it at the beneficiaries of the neoliberal economic order. But by the middle of the decade, new performers of the chant appeared. Those same beneficiaries, who we describe as embodying “neo-macho” masculinity, seized “eh puto” as a way of affirming a sense of national superiority and demonstrating their aligning values with elite global counterparts. As we show, not all men use the chant in the same way; they hail distinct masculine subjectivities for various purposes.","PeriodicalId":46007,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers-A Journal of Women Studies","volume":"43 1","pages":"28 - 61"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2022-04-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45590782","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
