Decolonial refusals: Ethnographic writing from the postperiphery

Decolonial refusals theory, forged through fieldwork in Puerto Rico, is used to question “conceptual disjunctures” in binary views of center‐periphery relations. Grad students here are not merely voices from the margins, as seen from the imperial north. Their autoethnographies may be dispatches from the frontlines of an epistemic rebellion. But seen from the south, their writings are regenerative forms of refusal. Their arc of refusal, rooted in a characteristic el vaivén modality (back‐and‐forth), begins by critiquing the mimicry of public English usage, and the coercive loss of voice they experience in English departments. Refusal to be pinned on the periphery opens to narrating fluid subjectivities, which challenge national and linguistic binaries. This project furthers the “ethnographic imperative” which Brian Street saw as key to reimagining interdisciplinary Writing Studies and cultural analysis.

Reconceptualizing Language Norms in Multilingual Contexts

This chapter uses an epistemological framework rooted in feminism, post-colonialism, and deconstruction to situate discussions of how knowledge is created, and how collaborative knowledge creation extends our understanding of the shifting and inter-connected cultural, social, and language realities that we experience in our lives. The authors show that these collaborative efforts construct meaning, expand meaning, and change previously accepted meaning. They show how they interrogate the normalization of this discipline, how they address the need for continuously re-examining and re-thinking approaches to translingual and transcultural collaboration as a way to construct new meaning, and how collaborative work continues to address and redefine the norms and realities of the dominant academic culture so that our contributions can lead to much-needed change in how we understand our roles as participants and stakeholders in translingual and transcultural collaborations.
