Focusing on the body as a visual and discursive platform across
public space, we study marginalization as a sociocultural practice
and hegemonic schema. Whereas mass incarceration and law
enforcement readily feature in discussions of institutionalized
racism, we differently highlight understudied sites of
normalization and exclusion. Our combined effort centers upon
physical contexts (skeletons, pageant stages, gentrifying
neighborhoods), discursive spaces (medical textbooks, legal
battles, dance pedagogy, vampire narratives) and philosophical
arenas (morality, genocide, physician-assisted suicide, cryonic
preservation, transfeminism) to deconstruct seemingly intrinsic
connections between body and behavior, Whiteness and normativity.
