Retelling racialized violence, remaking white innocence: the politics of interlocking oppressions in transgender day of remembrance
No full textTransgender Day of Remembrance has become a significant political event among those resisting violence against gender-variant persons. Commemorated in more than 250 locations worldwide, this day honors individuals who were killed due to anti-transgender hatred or prejudice. However, by focusing on transphobia as the definitive cause of violence, this ritual potentially obscures the ways in which hierarchies of race, class, and sexuality constitute such acts. Taking the Transgender Day of Remembrance/Remembering Our Dead project as a case study for considering the politics of memorialization, as well as tracing the narrative history of the Fred F. C. Martinez murder case in Colorado, the author argues that deracialized accounts of violence produce seemingly innocent White witnesses who can consume these spectacles of domination without confronting their own complicity in such acts. The author suggests that remembrance practices require critical rethinking if we are to confront violence in more effective ways.

“I am prepared for anything”: Christian martyrdom, civil society, and myths of modernity in Cold War El Salvador and Poland
No full textDrawing on the examples of the violent deaths of El Salvador’s Archbishop Oscar Arnulfo Romero and Poland’s Father Jerzy Popiełuszko during the heights of Cold War struggles in the respective countries this thesis presents Christian martyrdom as part of monumental social changes of which the Catholic Church had become an agent after World War II. The popular Catholic Church in peripheral countries such as El Salvador and Poland, I argue, became the facilitator of grassroots civic activism and resistance in which peasants and workers, no longer passive recipients of political identities and economic policies from above, became active agents in constructing of novel forms of resistance to state hegemonies, new civil societies, and political ideologies. As members of ‘popular churches’ these new social actors challenged ’myths of modernity’ pervading the Cold War polarization proving that in peripheral countries ideological categories such as left/right, socialist/liberal, and communist/capitalist did not lend themselves to easy universal categorizations. The Catholic Church, moreover, through Liberation Theology and theory of Solidarity provided alternative ‘third road’ ideologies, which borrowed from socialism and liberalism, but also challenged them. Catholicism, as ‘practical religion’, most dramatically articulated during Cold War in martyrdom and its cults, became synonymous with resistance to oppression and an existential code for civil societies striving for social justice.M.A.Includes bibliographical referencesby Joanna H.
