Fem witchcraft k affTournament: Blake | Round: 2 | Opponent: Eagan DW | Judge: Snyder, Kaija Blake Witchcraft Aff KThe resolution is undergirded by a dualistic understanding of systems and being - instrumentalism relies on the flawed conception of a unified subject and static identity, which reinforces inherently static dichotomies – traditionally "male" vs. traditionally "female" discussions, assertive men vs. submissive women– those that fail to conform become viewed as the witch-like monstrous other, to be either eradicated or forced to conform – instead of forcing us to adhere to strictures of conformity, allow us to frame discourse and identity through becoming – the body is a plane on which chaotic, everchanging forces act, and embracing this is keyElla Brians. 2011. ~Ella Brians (B.A., Amherst College, French and Philosophy; M.A., New School for Social Research, Philosophy) works on poetry and poetics from Romanticism to Modernism in English, French and German~, The 'Virtual' Body and the Strange Persistence of the Flesh: Deleuze, Cyberspace and the Posthuman, Deleuze and the Body. https://edinburgh.universitypressscholarship.com/view/10.3366/edinburgh/9780748638642.001.0001/upso-9780748638642-chapter-6. EC We must strive to become the monstrosity of the other - before we can reach liberationMassumi 99 Thus, I embrace the job of the witch in undermining and questioning the gender binary that permeates the gender spheres and debate, in order to combat its pervasive violence and achieve liberation. This means I reject the appropriation of outer space by private entities and curse private entities for trying to appropriate space similar to the way heteronormative spaces have tried to appropriate me.It is just after six pm. Your lips quiver in time with your heart.There are questions you really shouldn't ask yourself when you've lost this much sleep:How is your body yours when others name it for you?How do you take it back?You pick at the fleece of your jacket and swallow hard. You've read about this before, in the book that pulled you back into witchcraft: a story of the first time the author flew, burst in an explosion of feathers and light from her ribs, unfurled into the air and left her body under the trees. You want it. You want so badly to leave your bones.This should be easy. You've never lived in your body, not really. The facsimile of ownership inherent in holding an identity that never matched your biology forced you out as soon as you learned it was possible.So here you sit, under a bookcase, warm light from the table in the corner invading your sight. You close your eyes and try—And try—And try to step out.Your mouth tastes like rich brown bread, tongue a hard twist of muscle against your teeth.Did I ever tell you: teeth carry the oxygen of where you grew up. Are yours full of the ions of some wild land, or the terror of your stuffy room where you drew air across your teeth just to prove you could?You wonder why not both. Aren't they both wild and strange in their own way?Can you have both?Do you want both?You peel away from your skin, pull free of the body that's been taken from you. Ephemeral bones stretch and crack.You have no idea what you want to become.That's fine: after all, is it really shapeshifting when you have no real form to return to?Mutability - HAWKE (Hawke is a full-time student who aspires to be a full-time witch. Ze lives in CA with a couple of middle-aged cats and a steadily-growing bone collection. Those two things are not related, from Arcane Perfection, published 2017) Using feminist pedagogy in an educational space helps eliminate ideologies of privilege. This is a prerequisite to larger moral policy discussions, because otherwise the only voices we hear are those of the privileged. This becomes a bigger issue when the resolution at hand isnt accessible queer bodiesTeachnology The appropriation of space is a move to colonize space for the use of rich, white men. This comes from the same string of ideology that patriarchal violence is born from – a need to guarantee white men have immediate access to everything and anything they want.Bianco 18 The role of the ballot is to vote for the debater who most performatively and methodologically breaks traditional, binary norms.Gender a is binary construct created by the patriarchy, we must break away form the binary to become something newMassumi 99 (2) | 12/18/21 |
ableismTournament: North Star | Round: 1 | Opponent: Millard South JG | Judge: Synya, Anna Space Witches CPI agree with their fwk questioning masc concepts is good No solvency - Notions of one feminist project are universalizing and defeat the goals of diverse schools of feminist thoughtZalewski, Head of the School of Social Science at Aberdeen University, 03 (Marysia, "'Women's Troubles' Again In IR", Gender and International Relations, International Studies Review 5, 2003 JSTOR)AS The Aff attaches meaning to the ballot and creates an optimistic relationship to the object. This produces a cruel fantasy of solvency around a meaningless paper.Berlant, U-Chicago, "Cruel Optimism" 11: The Aff presents their communication in this room hoping that we can collectively create a better world. This produces a relation of cruel optimism with the political.Berlant, U-Chicago, "Cruel Optimism" 11: First, Solvency Takeout: cruel optimism solidifies relations of oppression. This passivity cannot solve.Berlant, U-Chicago, "Cruel Optimism" 11: Second, Case TURN: Cruel Optimism reproduces normativity and causes further repetitions of oppression. This locks us into a relation of living death.Berlant, U-Chicago, "Cruel Optimism" 11: | 1/22/22 |
