- 요약There has been little work on entangled intra-actions, or the simultaneous constitution of subjectivities and performances, between these discursive and material understandings of racial difference in higher learning. As a result, research and practice endorse a binary narrative either privileging discursive constructivism (looking to what discourses signify as basis for critique) or materialism (looking to how discourses emerge and work). Without adequate analysis of the content that inheres relational/pedagogical events that broach racial difference, including bodies, spaces, orientations, discourses, and objects, we foreclose opportunities to think carefully of the complex ethics and politics of living within the uneven distributions of precarious life.My project addresses this gap by analyzing the intra-actions of varied becomings (myself and with my students) around diversity work in the present conjuncture of political emergency. Through a rhizomatic (auto) ethnographic and philosophical bricolage with examination of the contexts, processes, and activities of doing diversity work in institutional or disciplinary learning spaces, I argue that many engagements with difference actually do not make a difference, regularly invoking aesthetic distancing (race and racism as happening out there) and reifying sentimental politics and hermeneutical violence. Ultimately, my transdisciplinary research shows that despite good intentions of pursuing diversity and social justice, when engagements with difference are inadvertently aligned with structures that maintain investments in whiteness and the racial status quo, they continue, if not proliferate, the racial inequities already present.My dissertation consists of three papers to (1) read diversity "conjuncturally;" (2) draw attention to the intra-actions in an education course that produce a white liberalist intimate public; and (3) offer a speculative treatise on the potentialities of decolonial mood work (merging scholarship from decolonial thought and feminist new materialisms) to rethink relationality that is unmoored from white subjection in higher education and beyond. I also offer a creative narrative/parable interlude of a teacher candidate who embodies "Beckyism, "or particular white heterofeminine citizen-subject (can also be used to describe to the "Karen" phenomenon). Here, I provide a stylized fanfiction account that describes the everyday emotional registers and responses of a composite Becky throughout her course of study. Through "progressive" commitments such as equality, and social justice; and sentimental responses to historical atrocities and current social events, these (conditional) protestations made by Becky serve as a hedonistic mechanism for image management that hinges on the exploitation and social death of people of color.In contrast to research that has emphasized the social construction of whiteness, this diffractive research captures the everyday and ambivalent productions and practices enacted through whiteness specifically in higher learning spaces. I theorize how investments in whiteness and diversity emerge, are managed, and reified when addressing a changing sociopolitical climate. This study intervenes by understanding how the claims of diversity can obscure meaningful engagements with power, historical particularities, and material realities. Also noting their predominance in educational spaces, this project attends to white women and their (im)material labor to shed new light on how contemporary racial and gender dynamics can affect the advancement of anti-racism, social justice, and equity. Moreover, this project challenges the representational coherence of research by employing alternative ways to engage language, voice, agency, positionality, and situated knowledge outside the traditional rubric of qualitative inquiry, empiricism, and data analysis.
