Rhetoric, Race, Religion, and the Charleston Shootings: Was Blind
but Now I See is a collection focusing on the Charleston shootings
written by leading scholars in the field who consider the rhetoric
surrounding the shootings. This book offers an appraisal of the
discourses - speeches, editorials, social media posts, visual
images, prayers, songs, silence, demonstrations, and protests -
that constituted, contested, and reconstituted the shootings in
American civic life and cultural memory. It answers recent calls
for local and regional studies and opens new fields of inquiry in
the rhetoric, sociology, and history of mass killings, gun
violence, and race relations-and it does so while forging new
connections between and among on-going scholarly conversations
about rhetoric, race, and religion. Contributors argue that
Charleston was different from other mass shootings in America, and
that this difference was made manifest through what was spoken and
unspoken in its rhetorical aftermath. Scholars of race, religion,
rhetoric, communication, and sociology will find this book
particularly useful.
