摘要:These are the opening lines from our performance drawing connections between reflexivity, failures, intersectionality, and alliance possibilities. Queer feminists of color (Anzaldúa; Carrillo Rowe; Collins; Johnson Reagon; Lorde; Lugones; Mohanty; Moraga and Anzaldúa; Moraga;) are invested in intersectional politics and self-reflexivity as a means for effective coalition building. Following their lead, critical intercultural communication scholars challenge us to deconstruct the social forces that continue to disempower marginalized bodies (Calafell and Moreman; Calafell; Nakayama and Halualani; Martin and Nakayama; Alexander; Warren; Cooks; Davis). As critical humanist intercultural scholars we are invested in social justice and believe Performance Studies and Intercultural Communication scholars must continue to build scholarship on reflexivity to develop avenues of alliances. We find queer feminist alliance work needs to be(come) a cornerstone of reflexivity scholarship
