摘要

在本讲座中,我将黑人和跨国女权主义者的反思视角转向女权媒体研究领域,以揭示某种 "我们讲述的故事",供我们批判性地思考种族问题,更具体地说,是关于在全球北方,通常构成我们分析对象的媒体文本和文化中明显占主导地位的白人问题。我的研究表明,这些文本和文化 "再造了白人",这是一种反复出现的批评主张。我对这种说法在方法论、认识论和本体论方面的前提和影响提出了质疑和批评,我认为这种说法本身就具有表演性:它助长了它所谴责的 "白人化",尤其是它似乎可以解释和证明为什么在特定的学术作品中,无法真正关注有关种族的进一步问题。我认为,在女性主义媒体研究中,我们需要超越对白人的重新定义,这样我们才能尝试对我们所研究的内容的种族政治学进行更全面、更严谨的思考,以及如何思考,事实上我们是谁,我们的各种立场,不仅是媒体学者,也是受众、消费者和使用者。

Beyond ‘reifying whiteness’ in feminist media studies
In this talk, I turn a Black and transnational feminist reflexive eye on the field of feminist media studies, to surface for critical consideration a certain ‘story that we tell’ about race, more specifically about the visibly dominant whiteness, in the global North, of the kinds of media texts and cultures that commonly comprise our objects of analysis. I show that there is a repeated critical claim to the effect that the texts and cultures ‘reify whiteness’. Interrogating and faulting some of the variously methodological, epistemological and ontological premises and effects of the claim, I argue that it is itself performative: it contributes to the very reification that it decries, not least by seemingly serving to explain and justify why, in a given piece of scholarship, further questions about race cannot really be attended to. I argue that we need to go beyond reifying whiteness in feminist media studies, so that we can attempt to offer more complete and rigorous consideration of the racial politics of what we study and how, and indeed who we are, our various positionalities, as not only scholars of media but also audiences, consumers and users ourselves.
