In response, I use this paper to reimagine shitposting, a discursive social media practice, as a form of public pedagogy aligned (at times) with critical media literacy education. I begin by engaging extant research to both define shitposting and position the practice beyond the neofascist ends of the alt-right movement that most scholars focus on. Examining this alignment through the lens of critical media literacy, I argue that shitposting exists as an online pedagogical technology that can potentially reorient the network of relationships within social media spheres and expand the possible range of identities for those involved. To illustrate this argument, I conclude with a close reading of posts from two Twitter accounts: dril, an anonymous user who has managed to inform political discourse through his shitposts, and the corporate account for the Sunny Delight Beverage Corporation. I describe how tweets from these accounts engage shitposts in divergent ways. In doing so, I contend that these tweets reveal shitposting’s potential for contributing to the democratic aims of critical media literacy education, but the appropriation of that practice by large corporations and individuals imbued with political power jeopardize that already fraught potential.","PeriodicalId":47299,"journal":{"name":"Curriculum Inquiry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135934677","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Yet, the initial changes associated with gentrification are subtle and are often celebrated in local media discourse—creating added uncertainty for youth as they endeavor to make sense of the changes they see. In this article, I investigate how youth from disparate backgrounds began to make sense of urban change through the lens of gentrification. Drawing on concepts from the field of cultural studies, I discuss three kinds of meaning-making that unfolded as the young people in my study began to co-construct shared understandings about the interlocking symbolic, political, and spatial inequalities that comprise gentrification. In turn, I argue that creating space for youth’s creative symbolic work can provide a forum for youth to develop the shared understandings needed to pursue collective action.","PeriodicalId":47299,"journal":{"name":"Curriculum Inquiry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45386325","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While perhaps not the most violent of times, depending on one’s positionality, context, and circumstances, the impact of the CoVid-19 pandemic along with the dramatic ecological and environmental changes occurring across the globe have in many ways compounded ongoing racial, economic, gender, and colonial violence. in their recently published exchange of letters, Black Canadian author and scholar robyn Maynard and Nishnaabeg cultural worker and scholar leanne Betasamosake Simpson (2022) invite each other— and us as readers—to contemplate what it means to build relationships across differences amidst such violence. in Maynard’s words, “as we are confronted with the crisis of the earth’s viability, then, amidst so many crises, i am writing you so we can think together about what it means for us to build livable lives together in the wreckage” (Maynard & Simpson, 2022, p. 28). the letters between these two influential thinkers inspire us to imagine what it might mean to encounter each other, even if momentarily, to create spaces for joy, generosity, and mutual recognition and uplift which might serve not just as a respite, but as a countermovement against ongoing violence. the kind of exchange that Maynard and Simpson (2022) exemplify as necessary for constituting a liveable present and imagining a future is antithetical to the hierarchical structuring of educational institutions like schools. Maynard and Simpson encounter each other as equals, not in the sense that they are the same or share the same experiences, but rather that they stand on equal footing across differences. this encounter acknowledges these differences and recognizes them as a source of strength that animates the possibilities for a future. in stark contrast, educational processes across colonial and racist institutions like schools are organized by a specific hierarchization of social and cultural differences that produces violence. and yet, as the authors in this issue of Curriculum Inquiry illustrate, these hierarchies and violences are not overdetermined. instead, as educators, we can seek to create liminal moments when schooling structures can be momentarily suspended and opportunities for encounters amongst equals, through which we recognize each other across and within differences, are possible. the ways authors in this issue approach curriculum and pedagogy offer opportunities to wrestle with the contradictions we live within by opening ourselves up to the liminal spaces of our present situation. as James","PeriodicalId":47299,"journal":{"name":"Curriculum Inquiry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46854544","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

At the Protestant school where I conducted ethnographic research, faculty-student hierarchies were downplayed and students were given ample freedom of expression in worship, in the interest of encouraging them to have individual encounters with God. At the second site, I recount “auto-ethnographically” how the school’s leadership-development mission is associated with rituals and relationships paralleling those in the first site. As part of this auto-ethnography, I also describe how students, through the student government which serves as a counterpart to worship activities at the Protestant school, successfully contested the administration’s authority in a controversy over the dress code. I employ both cases to illustrate how liminality and communitas, concepts developed by the anthropologists Victor Turner and Edith Turner, explain the tensions described and serve to draw attention to similar moments and spaces in religious and secular schooling. The writings of John Taylor Gatto as well as Eileen de los Reyes and Patricia Gozemba’s concept of “pockets of hope” further highlight this tension. Liminality and communitas also help identify much of what was lost in emergency remote teaching during the COVID-19 pandemic. Research with these concepts could produce important insights into the possibilities and pitfalls of such educational endeavours, as well as into the interplay between structure and agency in schooling.","PeriodicalId":47299,"journal":{"name":"Curriculum Inquiry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48080089","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It extends Indigenous Maternal Pedagogies and engages theorists who identify colonial violence as structurally embedded throughout education. This article advances curricular moves toward justice through Indigenous Maternal Pedagogies to explore the lessons that can be gleaned from teaching a graduate seminar on colonial violences in education. The course served as a pedagogical site for critical and unsettling conversations as students were prompted to reckon with their own positionalities as they relate to settler colonialism, consider how violence happening outside of classroom spaces is manifested and reproduced in schools, and think critically about educational responses to ongoing colonial violences. By enacting Indigenous Maternal Pedagogies, the course also became a site for liberatory praxis through the co-creation of an ethical space for engagement. The intention of the course was to prompt socio-political action beyond the classroom. Moreover, extending bell hooks’s sentiment that the classroom, despite its limitations, remains a site of possibility, Indigenous Maternal Pedagogies transcend classrooms spaces, as sites of resistance, to call for the change our current political moment demands.","PeriodicalId":47299,"journal":{"name":"Curriculum Inquiry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46191658","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These policies tend to offer specific guidance about how administrators and educators should respond to the needs of particular students: those who are (currently legible to school actors as) somehow transgender. Leveraging Claudia Ruitenberg’s writings on enacting a Derridean ethic of hospitality in education, however, I argue that it is ethical to not intend that policy, pedagogy, and curriculum address the needs of particular children and youth in order to do something about how gender rigidly organizes life in schools. De-centring these subjects does not mean doing nothing about this problem; it means doing something paradoxically impossible, yet ethical precisely because it is so impossible: preparing to welcome a student who may never arrive and who the teacher can never know, gender-wise, even and perhaps especially if there are out transgender students in one’s very own school. I offer three orientations to guide teachers, in particular, towards enacting this welcome: not seeking to know the transgender student in advance of their arrival, not trying to be a good teacher for transgender students in particular, and being wary of curricular representation as a strategy of welcome.","PeriodicalId":47299,"journal":{"name":"Curriculum Inquiry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43919416","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Alexander, Rubén Gaztambide-Fernández","doi":"10.1080/03626784.2023.2201130","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/03626784.2023.2201130","url":null,"abstract":"Queerness can be messy. Not just as a description of individual people, or as applied to a community, but rather as a way of knowing and being that disrupts binaries, blurs boundaries, and holds contradictions (Campbell & Farrier, 2015; love, 2016). these are all messy things, as they don’t ascribe to the neat, organized, and disciplined ways of thinking that are prioritized in the academy. While many queer scholars acknowledge and often celebrate the messiness of their subjectivity, which creates new modes of knowledge production and mobilization (love, 2016, p. 345), education more broadly still struggles with what to do with queerness. Putting queerness to work means making space for the (im)possibilities, tensions, and complexities of the lived experience of queer and trans people and their communities, honouring their embodied knowledge of navigating a cisheterosexist world. When queerness and its relationship to education is invoked, it is often primarily through the lens of anti-bullying and identity frameworks to support students (Fields et al., 2014). But queering our scholarship is more than advocating for representation of lGBtQ peoples; it is challenging the fundamental assumptions upon which education is built. Youth homelessness is a queer issue, accessibility is a queer issue, the school-to-prison pipeline is a queer issue; education and its intersection with any and every social issue is queer. as educators, what messy conversations can we have that use queerness beyond the politics of representation? What (im)possibilities might queerness produce? How can we use the messiness of queerness to not only create new approaches to the common issues within education, but also to challenge the norms and assumptions of the academy, as it continues with the historical disenfranchisement of queer and trans people. in a time with increasing attacks against lGBtQ people, both inside and outside of schools, it is important to push back against the ongoing disparaging rhetoric about queer and trans youth, their families, and their communities. drawing attention to how queer epistemologies, theories, and methodologies are applied across educational contexts, the articles in this issue of Curriculum Inquiry (CI) put queerness to work in ways that create more inclusive spaces for all young people. these engagements challenge the “neat” ways of organizing queer and trans subjectivity within the logics of the cisheterosexist imagination. the authors move beyond representation to illuminate how queerness produces ways of knowing and being that affirm not just the identities but the embodied knowledges of queer/trans communities. together, the articles in this issue of CI shed light on some of the messiness","PeriodicalId":47299,"journal":{"name":"Curriculum Inquiry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48868036","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The telling case features youth talking about young adult author Sáenz’s sexuality, his novel Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe, and whether and how (literary) authors’ identities affect their writing (of literature). My analysis of the case explores epistemological phenomena related to literature, curiosity, authenticity, #OwnVoices, and author–reader relationships, which I consider through critical, especially queer and trans, theoretical perspectives about epistemology, transparency, and opacity.
